BECOMING POOR

 

The Lord invites and encourages us to be free of our own agenda.

Come to me ... and I will give you rest Matthew 11:28 is all embracing.

All we need to do is say, ‘Lord I forsake everything to You’. Luke 14:33

He takes over and does the rest.

It is amazing, with practice, how in trust you really can give the Lord anything that might be occupying your mind.

Some Christians give this the title ‘kenosis’, Gk meaning emptying.

You really then are empty, mendicant, a beggar. You have hands outstretched to receive His love, for His love to be poured into you.
