submitting their lives fully – v2


Submitting their lives fully
to the work of the kingdom;
Giving their lives over
to God’s righteousness.

Open to God’s message
to instruction, to judgment;
Submitting their lives fully
to God’s will, to God’s work.

Willing to stop, to listen,
to speak aloud God’s judgment;
Accepting the will of God
God’s righteous, to God’s purpose.

Submitting their lives fully
whatever may befall them;
Open to God’s will, to God’s call,
God’s holy purpose for them

trusting our own eyes
John 1:43-51
“Jesus Calls Philip and Nathanael” (NRSV)
(John) Wesley’s Notes on the Bible
John 1
“46. Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?
- How cautiously should we guard against popular prejudices?
When these had once possessed so honest a heart as that of Nathanael,
they led him to suspect the blessed Jesus himself for an impostor,
because he had been brought up at Nazareth. But his integrity prevailed
over that foolish bias, and laid him open to the force of evidence,
which a candid inquirer will always be glad to admit, even when it brings
the most unexpected discoveries. Can any good thing - That is,
have we ground from Scripture to expect the Messiah,
or any eminent prophet from Nazareth? Philip saith,
Come and see - The same answer which he had received himself
from our Lord the day before.”
