Submission not compliance

This morning's message was so awesome and straight from the Lord of what I needed to hear. It was about the difference between compliance and submission and how it is vital to be in submission and willingly obeying the Lord and pursuing our relationship with Him because He is the key to life...... HE IS LIFE!!!
The other point was made that as we go through things.... trials. It shows us where we are in our walk when we see how we go through it and where we end up when it is all done.
Do we ask ourselves where we are and are we completely casting ourselves on the Lord for our life?Or are we trying to live our lives in our own strength and failing.....
What a difference we can make in this Life and on this country if we operate in God's strength and will.... not our own.
Praise the Lord for the way He loves us and is intimately involved in all the details of our life.Let us make this the year that we depend totally and only on our Lord for and to be our everything: that He can make a difference!!!!!
