A.W. Tozer writes, "Everything is safe which we commit to God, and nothing is safe which is not committed." Don't we often hold so tightly to things that clutter our lives and distract us from God? We call them "mine" and we cherish them even more than people. They are so priceless and important to us, more important than what God wants for us. Isn't it time to commit them to God to use or discard as he wishes? It is only then that our things will find their designed place and true value in our lives.
