"All our promises and resolutions end in denial because we have no power to accomplish them. When we come to the end of ourselves, not just mentally but completely, we are able to 'receive the Holy Spirit"….the idea is that of invasion. There is now only One who directs the course of your life, the Lord Jesus Christ." (Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest, January 5 entry).
As I travel on my own journey with the Lord in this new year, how might more of the Spirit be evident in and through me because of the ways in which I relinquish control and let God be God?
Are there some situations or relationships in your life that you would like to hand over to God and let Him be honored?
