The Surgeon

Reflecting on his recent experience on the operating table, my pastor had this to say in his latest bulletin message:

When you get yourself to the point where you accept that you need something to be done to improve your life, it is all pretty plain sailing as long as you are prepared to trust.

When it comes to the Divine Trinity operating on us, ... we are all too reluctant and untrusting of what God might do...

Imagine what it would have been like if I had sat up and told the surgeon what to do to my leg... My job in this whole process...was to relax and receive.

Why are we so reluctant to allow God this sort of prominence and power in our lives, especially when unlike the hospital system, the Surgeon has already paid the bill through Jesus Christ?
