What If's

"Come out of self-hatred into My love. Come to Me now. Forget about yourself. Accept who I long to be for you - your Rescuer - endlessly loving, forever patient, unbearably forgiving...You are a broken flower; I will not crush you. A flickering candle, I will not extinguish you. For now and forever, be still. You are safe with Me."

What if I let go? What if I just let God take control and go along for the ride? What if, instead of asking God "Change my situation," I ask Him, "Change me?" What if instead of making inchoate, long-term resolutions, I focus on bringing Him glory for the day I'm living? What if I look in the Word instead of a mirror? 

What if I say, "I will"?
