Big Idea:  This is the paradox of the Christian life.  You want to find your life?  Jesus says, "Follow Me & lose your life."  You want to have the best?  Jesus says, "Follow Me & be willing to give up everything you have."  The world scratches its collective head & asks, "Lose your life & you'll find life???".  Yes.  Let's look at what Jesus means & be open to the Next Steps He asks you to take.

Next Steps:

I will remember He owns my life.
I will follow Jesus as my Life Guide.

I will use the Bible as my daily trail map.

I will ask the Holy Spirit to be my continual compass.
I will commit to serving Him.
-----

Jesus, I acknowledge that You are my Creator, Sustainer, Savior & Lord, & therefore, You are the Rightful Owner of my life & everything I have.  I want to Follow You & I surrender all I am & all I have to You.  I want You to use my life for Your Glory. 
I want to offer You:  My Independence, My Thoughts, My Marriage/Singleness, My Family, My Possessions, My Today , My Tomorrow, My Future, My Body, My Gifts, My Life.
