Giving it ALL

Last night, there was this thing called Echo at North Metro.  (Kinda rhymed)  It is a college and 20's Bible Study on Thursday night.  The series is called NUMB3RS and it is on money and finances, your own that is.  Trust me on on this next group of words... it is interesting, well worth it and a humbling blessing.

We were posed with a question, can you give God everything?  I mean after all everything is spiritual, everything is his.  What are you doing with that other 90%.  What are you doing about debt.  Are you willing to give God your debt's, your loans?

As i left Echo tonight I prayed.  I basically said "God i find it so easy, and i find that i actually have given up family, friends, my life in some ways, but i haven't really given up money."  And as i thought about that, it dawned on me that i really hadn't actually given up anything.  Without giving up everything, i don't believe i had given up anything.  I mean sure at times i have sacrificed family, friends, and finances for him, but all in all i haven't given up everything.  I was left humbled and broken.  I am not that much into debt, but i am in debt.  I want to be out of it.  I want to be out of it in break neck speed.  I want to be free from slavery and bondage and in Gods authority.

I want to literally give everything to God.  I want to give my finances, family, friends, life, everything to him.  Yes... i am a Christ follower, but i haven't given up everything.  It is just... i don't know.  All i do know is that i desperately desire to give God my money and debts, i mean after all, everything is spiritual... right?
