The end of self is where Christ begins

Can we finally deny ourselves and say we choose God and His ways? Saying that God is more important and more wise than us. Choosing what He tells us over what we want. We acknowledge that what we want is worldly and fleshly and that we can get caught up in the world and God sees an eternal vision in which we do not. We may want to go to this party and God convicts us not to but we think well I won't do anything that bad but when we choose our ways over His we are already losing control of choosing God. If we can't make the first choice who says we can make the last? We have to keep ourselves from doing what we want and wanting what God wants. Not just doing what seems right but what God desires and commands. 

As humans we have desires to make choices and be free and go with our instinct. We want to be right. Calling Christ our savior is calling Him the shot caller. Is what we are living for worth His death? We have to deny our own flesh and mind and call upon God for everything. To move on in a life with Christ it is important to know life in Christ won't be perfect or easy but to know no matter what happens we won't be shaken. We won't let the events of each day change how we live for God. But instead let the way we react to issues be a light for Christ. Our feelings don't change the way God feels about us. He loves us consistently and fully. He is perfect and we are not. If we can't say that aloud how are we going to choose Him in the hard situations? God has to be #1 in all situations and thoughts and not just certain ones. There isn't a list of things that God can have in our lives and things God can't. He can have it all or we can't have Him! It all comes in Christ. In Christ alone. Jesus paid the price our we willing to pay a price in this life or pay the price after this life? Do we truly want God and love Him or just don't want to go to hell. Lets call on God and let Him take over our hearts and let our hearts speak in our lives. Be the light in the darkness and keep it shining! God never burns out!
