I’m Afraid to Submit

Romans 2:13 NLT

O: Hearing from God or reading His Word is only part of the equation. Doing/obeying is the other part.

A: I will obey, even though I may not like it.

P: God, thank you for bringing me to this point in my life. I know I still need to submit myself to you completely. I hear you speaking to me a lot lately…”obedience, obey”. To be honest, I’m afraid to submit completely. I fear that you will ask me to do something big…I’m afraid I’ll fail. I fear that I’ll be vulnerable…I’m afraid I’ll be hurt. I fear humbling myself before you…I’m afraid I will be irreparably broken. Having said all that, I know that obedience to you will ultimately strengthen me in your name. Forgive my lack of faith, Lord.
