"I have been before God, and have given myself, all that I am and have to God; so that I am not, in any respect, my own...I have given myself clear away, and have not retained any thing as my own" -Jonathon Edwards Wonderful missionaries Bill and Lori Smith, medical missionaries in PNG had this quote on their most recent prayer letter(you can read this letter or check out their ministry at the link under my friends). They have been such an encouragement to me in so many ways since I was introduced to them first by prayer letters (every week) and then in person almost 2 years ago. Their lives are hard, with fighting and sickness all around, but they are joyfully living how I always have wanted to - totally surrendered to God. Can you say with J Edwards you have given your all?
