Risking Yourself for God

“Being contently settled can never be the long-term goal for a person who follows Christ. Just when we decide that we’ve seen and heard enough, God invites us to yet another experience that could potentially change our lives. The One who says, "Follow me," leads us to people who need our friendship, places that need our presence, and issues that call for our attention. We worship a Christ who claimed no place to lay his head. In order to follow this One, we must embark upon a lifelong journey.

...Perhaps the scripture passages in this unit need a warning label attached. After all, the study and application of these verses involves risking who we are as followers for who we could become. When we risk ourselves for God, we find assurance and gifts that we would not discover otherwise. Is this a risk you are willing to take?”
