Abandoned

I chose the title of my blog to be "Abandoned to Him" because that is my heart's desire. The dictionary defines abandoned as given up; forsaken, deserted. To me it means fully surrendered, giving up my wants, desires, dreams, and letting God have His way in my life. There is a song that we sing in church that I love. It goes like this:

"Abandoned to Him, completely devoted. He is my all. Sold out, surrendered, my life tells the story, Abandoned to Him, Devoted to my King!

I'm throwing aside everything that's not of You. Running the race, keep my eyes on the prize. Religion and sin, fear of man, these are weights that I don't need. Living to die, dying to live, this marvelous mystery!"

That sums it up. It is an everyday struggle with my emotions, my wants, my desires, but I am determined to live an abandoned life to Christ.
