Experiencing our full humanity as we follow Christ seems to be related to our confession and repentance, our deep dependence on God’s presence in us. To follow Him means we let go of our need to control our circumstances, yet actively make choices to participate in His kingdom. The paradox of taking action but surrendering to Him create tension each so as we make decisions. But following Him is depending on Hos word and the nudge the Spirit gives us in the here and now moments. May we live to honor Him in our thoughts, intentions and actions.
