Are you willing?

More from "In His Face" by Bob Sorge...

"For those who are willing, God will set your motivations and aspirations in right priority. It will be a painful work, for He will have to bring you to a place of such desperate dependence upon Him that the only cry of your heart will be, "I must gain Christ!" Only then will you realize that being in His face is your solitary source of survival."

Pain is never fun. But in God's Kingdom shaping, it is absolutely necessary! The old addage, "No pain, no gain" is true even with God's doings. He loves us enough not to leave us where we are, and sometimes that means lots of pain in order to gain Christ.
