I Think I'll Just Go with God
Steve Wagers
Hebrews 13: 13-14
INTRODUCTION
As I look back through my life, there are several important dates that I will always remember. For example, just to name a few, I will always remember November 27, 1966 as the day that I was brought into this world. I will always remember October 29, 1994; the day that my wife, Kim, and I were united in marriage. I will always remember November 9, 1998 as the day that I found out that I was going to be a "Dad!"
However, while everyone of those are great dates, in their own right, there are 2 other dates that even greater than those. The first is August 10, 1985, the day that I was redeemed by the blood, regenerated by the Spirit; and, received into the family of God. That it the day that I became gloriously saved. The second, is October 24, 1986. That is the day when I fully surrendered my life, my love, and my labor to the Lord Jesus. That is the day when I came to the realization of the fact that I was completely, and totally His. Yes, that is the day when I made the decision that has guided the last 12 years of my life, and that is the decision to 'just go with God!'
I think of something I read recently that told of a family who was going on vacation. Such as is normal, the family had taken all of the necessary preparations to ensure a safe, and an enjoyable vacation. The car was in tip-top shape, the bags were packed, and the course was professionally charted out. Their destination would take several days of driving to reach, so each night, they would stop and rest. As they hit the third day of their trip, their little eight-year old daughter, weary from the traveling, asked her father a very interesting question. She asked, "Daddy, when we get where we're going, will we be there?"
When I read that, I thought, that is exactly the question many Christians have asked. You see, though many have been saved, not many have become submitted to the plan of God ...
