3. We made a decision to turn our lives and our wills over to the care of God.

Romans 12:1 NKJV
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

What was life Like before you got here?

who was in control of that life?

Matthew 19:16–26 NKJV
16 Now behold, one came and said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?” 17 So He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.” 18 He said to Him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “ ‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ 19 ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ” 20 The young man said to Him, “All these things I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?” 21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. 23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” 25 When His disciples heard it, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?” 26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

is this text about money?

No!

This Text is about what is first in your heart.

what is hard to surrender as you come into this new life?

our hurt, habit, or hang up will lie to us.

it will make us believe we are something we are not so that it can keep us from becoming what God has for us to be.
you can have a hang up of UN- forgiveness and not realize that you are in part to blame even in the original offense.
even as I said that tension rose in your heart.
you might have a hangup like negativity, many people who have a negative attitude don't even realize they do. ‘
people who have addiction it often takes years to understand their adduction is a problem.

My hurt, Habit or Hang up creates a false identity in them, that identity makes us feel as we are going to miss something.

The fact is the Hurt, Habit, or Hang-up has nothing to offer us.

Closing Question: What false Identity has you afraid you will loose if you surrender?
