Surrender, at the feet of Christ.

Ever since my days in the army, I've been reading, and it has been quite substantial given then number of books I've gone through in the last few years. The books can tell me about the bible, about Jesus Christ, but they are not the gospel. 

Finally, after some delay, I turned to the bible, reading it page by page, chapter by chapter, book by book. It was a long journey, but it was absolutely humbling. Given the books I have read, they were nothing like the bible. My mind just could not reconcile how the 66 books speak of Jesus Christ and God's sovereignty over so many centuries, and the authors are talking about the same story! If God was not consistent and ultimately sovereign, could the bible have ever been written with such consistency? Would Christ, then, be resurrected from the dead? All through out the bible, everything is about Jesus, he was there in the beginning, and he will be there till the end to judge. (Col 1, Rev 5)

I'm thankful for Christ, that he has died for me, and that I can be with this God, who is ever so sovereign.
