Who's on the throne?
Our lives go much better when we are 2nd!
"He must become greater; I must become less. "- John 3:30
Many people are offended by the Gospel of Jesus Christ because it necessarily makes them uncomfortable simply because they must give up the throne of their own life.
We must become 2nd, Jesus must become 1st. This is so foreign to our fleshly desire for control. We fight against this with all our energy. But the truth is the illusion of control is a lie and Jesus is a much better and more qualified leader of our lives than we can ever be.
Surrender the throne and see how much more peaceful your life will become. Jesus knows you better than you know yourself. he knows what you need more than you do. He wants to give you the best of life, but to do so you must get out of His way. He is both the Lamb of God and the roaring Lion of Judah. He uses both parts to sustain you!
