So, one of the songs we sung during this morning’s worship is quickly becoming one of my favorites: Precious, Intimate King.

After we sang it this morning, I really starting thinking about the last verse:

So I will lay my will

Down at your feet, my Lord

In adoration, in adoration

Learning to lay my will down at the feet of Jesus is something I am constantly working on.  I want so badly to take control of my own life, and tell God what I want to happen.  Instead, I need to learn to give up and surrender my life to God, let Him take control and decide what happens.  I know that His choices for me will work out better than mine.

What really got me about this song, though, was the last part: “In adoration”

I always tell myself that I have to let God take control because it will be better for me in the end.  But, really, I should let God take control becuase I love Him, and I want to please Him, and that is what He asks me to do. 

Then, to top it all off, the lesson today was about submission to God.  Both Robin and Kate did a great job, and both of them talked about submitting with your heart, not just on the outside.  So, that made me think.  When I submit my will to God, is it because I’m just looking out for myself, or is my heart in it? 

I think that if I could learn to really, truly, give up my will to God, from the heart, I think it might just get a little bit easier.  I don’t think it will ever be easy, and it will always be a struggle, but I do believe it won’t be so much of a battle. 

So, Katie and I were just talking, and we have this amazing, deep, profound, question about life. We’ve been discussing this topic on and off for a couple of weeks, and just can’t seem to get our heads around it. This question is just so intellectually complex, and dynamic. We finally decided to get some more input, so I thought I would ask you all (all two of you who read this). We would greatly appreciate any input you have.

So, brace yourself, here it is:

Focus. Get ready to think.

Really, think about this before you respond.

Ok.

How does paint stick to walls?

Okay, really, anyone who is still reading this, please post a response!  It makes things so much more fun for me! 

Here is my question:

What is your biggest accomplishment?
