I am sure that there is nothing that I can do to save myself. I have done things my way enough to know that my way not only does not work, but usually I make a pretty good mess out of things. Also I have learned that Jesus never fails, and that He is the one that does the work of salvation in my life, though the Holy Spirit.
The problem for me is, getting self out of the way, so that God can do the work that He wants to do in my life. It's hard to die to self, to yield to God, to allow Him to mold me and shape me into the person He wants me to be. Even though in theory, I wholeheartedly want to be the person God wants me to be, and I rejoice in it.
Has anyone else here had a problem yielding to God, to allow Him to do a work in them to transform them into Children of God? Thanks, JohnR7
