restrained

Why do people fall away from the faith? When it seems yesterday they were so passionate for God, when yesterday it seemed that they are just so in love with Jesus and would do everything for Him.

The problem lies with the heart.

Their heart might have been restrained but never fully surrendered.

I had a heart check today. Is my heart just restrained or is it fully surrendered?

Is my life just restrained because the message convicted me of a certain area in my life but God has never really touched my whole being?

Is my life just a facade? Do I know deep in my heart that I haven’t yet surrendered to God?

A changed and blessed life is a life that is totally surrendered to God!
