radically emptied...

 
 


The journey that I am about to embark on is that of a very long and carefully thought through decision in my life… emptying me of myself in order to be filled to the brim with Christ. It’s a journey that will require committing 365 days to anyone or anything but myself. This quest will prove to be the most difficult of any other journey I have traveled before. I stand to not only lose the most, but gain the most as well. It will test me, tempt me, and more than likely, break me at times. And, hopefully, it will change me forever.


This journey is called “Radically Emptied”. It’s fitting because this is, in my opinion, a radical attempt to empty me of myself so that I can be filled with more of Christ. Each day I will awake and just seek God and what He has for me that day. No plans, no holding back, no excuses, no questions, no exceptions. Anything goes, and I will be content in every circumstance knowing God will go with me. And I will end each day as I begin… thanking Him for blessings in abundance.


The plan is simple. If I engage in a conversation, it will intentionally not be about myself. If I go before God in prayer, it will be for others first and then myself. If I spend time or money, it will be for the sake of others. I will strive to be in Gods Word every day. I will seek out and put into memory key passages of scripture that will become instrumental in my journey. I will find a small army of warriors that will commit to praying for me since I will not be devoting much prayer time for myself. Please pray for me on this journey.... please pray for transformation to be more like that of Christ. If you’d like to read more, please visit the story link above.
