Wrap Up

So I've been told by many people that my final blog was not much of a final blog. Honestly I seriously doubt anyone still checks in on this since I've been back from Peru for months but I'll wrap it up short and sweet.

To be completely honest I rushed into going to Peru without adequate prayer and meditation. I was seeking something that can not be found by our own actions. That is what I was searching for can not be found because of anything I do or don't do. It can only be found through a complete reliance and faith in Christ Jesus.

I mentioned this in Sunday School last week but I think I have spent the last few years of my life looking all around for something that was in front of me the whole time. I was making it too complicated. Being a servant to Christ does not have to entail radical actions outside of our norm or comfort zone, but instead it should mean being radical in everyday life.

Which is a perfect segway into my new blog: The Cost (CaseyProvidence.blogspot.com)

I will talk about Being a Servant to Christ, simply and completely.

I'm not going to talk about it because I'm so good at it and other people need to hear what I have to say so that they can be a servant of Christ too: I actually am terrible at it. But I am growing everyday. Learning the true meaning to Luke 9:23. I am going to be a follower of Christ the way HE intended, not the way this world has told me followers of Christ should be. I am going to be fully submitted in every aspect of my life...and I know this will happen because I have asked God to change me and transform me NO MATTER THE COST, and God will fulfill His promise like He ALWAYS does. It will be all God doing the transformation, it already is. I promise to you I take none of the credit because left on my own I'm no better than dirt.

Please read the blog. Please comment on the blog. Argue with me, hold me accountable, challenge my faith...it will only make both of us grow. John Wesley once said something like: if I leave a town and people are not upset and angry with me, I wonder if I really preached from the gospel. Yes we believe in a God of love, but the reality of living this life of complete submission and love is not a comfortable glamorous reality by earthly standards.
