If YOU Want Me To

God has been rocking my world lately, in numerous ways, but specifically through the life of Joshua as I've been reading the book of Joshua.  God told Joshua to do some crazy things as he led the Israelites, but Joshua obeyed immediately every time.  He NEVER questioned God or hesitated one bit, and God blessed him greatly because of this willingness to trust and obey.  I need to be more like Joshua!

Then the other night on my way home from Bedford, I heard Ginny Owen's song "If You Want Me To" on the radio, and I've always liked that song, but the words really go along with the book of Joshua, but with a suffering twist.  We are to obey even in the midst of pain and suffering, or if obeying may bring upon us suffering.  In the end, it will bring us closer to God.  I found the video of her singing this song and wanted to post it in case anyone hasn't heard it.
