Dying to Self

Adam and Eve were created to live forever.

Because they chose self – to go their own way, they had to die. All of mankind has followed in the footprints of Adam and Eve, choosing to go their own way. Some turn back to their Creator, but not all.

Our mission in life is to learn to die to self and learn to give control of our lives back to God so we can live with him forever.

Father God, help us learn to release control of our lives to you day by day.

Genesis 3

    • Thanks, Christy. It is one of those truths that we tend to have to learn over and over as well.
