Hearts Surrendered?

What does that even look like? 
 
God has been talking to me lately about something.  He has been trying to get my attention for a while, but I was running from it.  Not sure why.
No, I take that back.  I am sure why!  It's hard.  It's tough.  It hurts, to lay down myself.  To let me die, so he can live out fully-in me and through me.  BUT, that is precisely what he has told me I need to do. 
 
Not only has be been telling me, but he's been whispering in Matt's ear too.  We are in spiritual agreement, at what must be done.
 
We have chosen, God.  We have chosen..to live for him.  As strange and crazy as it may very well look to the outside world-especially those who don't hear his voice themselves.  It is a place where we know we need to be.  A place that is "safe" as described by Him.  Safe in that, he will never leave us.  No matter what. 
 
Bottom line is this, I want to be in his presence.  All.  The.  Time.  When I see him, when I stand before him-on THAT day.  I want him to be pleased with me.  So, I have to choose him now.  Do the hard things now.  I want to please him. 
 
Right now, we are simply willing..to be willing..to hear what he has for us to do.  We are getting ready, to listen.  To obey.  To submit.  To lay down.  To die, to ourselves..to let him live through us.  That is where we are today. 
 
If you read this post and are baffled.  Your mind is confused, and you can't make sense of what this means..  There is a void.  If you can't hear his voice, clearly.  If you don't know him like that...just know, you can.  You really can.  And he has more for you that what you see before you with your human eyes.  He really does.  I long for you to understand..but first, you have to know him.  When you give yourself completely to him, I will be among those dancing and celebrating with you.  What a family to become part of.

Let Him dwell within me, ALL of my days. He is my and the only source of real JOY! The world is a liar. Only YOU can decide who you want to be, your identity is either in the world or in Jesus. If it's in Jesus then you are perfect because He is perfect. He atoned for all of our real imperfections. If sin leads to death, why do we chase it? Why do we chase the grave instead of His grace? Me too, it's a daily surrender of my desire for the world. Daily, hourly, minutely. The pull is intense and the struggle is real. Literally. No matter what happens to me, you know your mother's heart chases after Jesus Christ Himself. It is not the path of least resistance. On the contrary. I live my life for Him and through Him because I have already experienced the contrary. It was a state of darkness and death. Absence of light and of love. Of course I want to spare you the suffering of that course but sometimes we must walk through that mire to appreciate Him as he washes it off of us s...
