It happened when I said to God, "I want to give you my life." He stopped me, and showed me the picture I had unknowingly painted for him: me, standing alone, reaching out to give Him something -- to give Him my "life". My time, my resources, my money, my actions...these were all things I was attempting to lift up to Him. But something wasn't right.
I stood there trying to give him those things, thinking, "Now, You'll have everything."
No!
Because afterwards, I was still standing there.
It took me a moment to realize that He wanted me.
He didn't want me to stand from a distance and hand Him things, He wanted me to step forward and say, "Here am I!"
