My online Bible Study "The Best Yes" has just begun, yesterday, as a matter of fact! It is already challenging me, this is the stuff I love, conviction, change, new found knowledge of who God is, the list goes on and on.
A few insights...
"We must not confuse the command to love with the disease to please." - tby (the Best Yes)
"What is my best yes? The Best Yes is you playing your part. If you know it and believe it, you'll live it." - tby
~ I feel like I've searched this out for a long time and have actually made some headway on this journey for this particular issue. I know I'm supposed to, am called to, music ministry and I'm being used in this way already. I have tried to weed out the things I'm not "called" to and have had to use the word "no", much to the surprise of some. This is only the beginning. I did a study last year, maybe 2 years ago about surrendering. In many ways this goes along with that "anything", the titles seem completely opposite of one another but saying you'll do "anything" - surrendering yourself to God means you are opening yourself to God's "Best Yes" for you. I don't believe that His will and plan for your life is to say "yes" to anything that comes along. That kind of thinking keeps us busy and distracted for what God's purpose is for us.
Start chasing your "Best Yes".
