Abide

I don't want just to surrender my life into God's hands; I want to exchange my life for His- to have Him fully take possession as I hang myself on the cross. There is a giddy freedom that comes realizing that as it costs me everything, there will be nothing left to hinder the fullness of this magnificent person of the Holy Spirit. True abiding is a life full of joy, owning nothing yet completely secure in the vine.
