Give Yourself Away

"I know, O Lord, that a man's life is not his own; it is not for man to direct his steps."  (Jeremiah 10:23)

When I read this passage today my mind quickly raced to a recent season of worship at Northstar when we all stood with hands raised and voices boldly proclaiming "my life is not my own, to you I belong, I give myself, I give myself to you Lord!" 

I understand today better than ever that the only reason we exist on this earth is to give our lives away in order to advance His kingdom!  It is only as we come to this humble realization, that the Father can fully use us up for His glory!  Then and only then can He begin to "order our steps."
