I can’t handle the world – the world handles me.
It craves control of my mind,
It hungers to direct my actions.
I’m tired of being manipulated by the world.
But there is another way.
Time for a change.
I’m no longer a victim.
Surrender!
I wrest my life from the world and surrender it to God.
I pour out my self, and God fills me with Him.
What next?
That’s up to God.
What’s that I feel?
Excitement?
Anticipation?
Oh boy!!!

First, my writing isn't about me. Don’t want the attention, don’t want to feed my ravenous ego (yep, I’m just a typical pride-plagued human).
But I love writing - it gets me out of bed when it's way too dark, just so I can do some writing before heading off to work. I write because I’m passionate about God, Jesus, His Spirit, and His truth. And, I feel the Holy Spirit gets shortchanged in the world we call Christianity. The truth is sometimes lacking too.

Love this C.J.! Amen, I am not a victim! Isn’t it amazing that the opposite of a victim is not a battle worn victor, but one who surrenders completely to Christ.
