{ Not going to Him with options but with empty hands. }

"Don’t go to God with options and expect Him to choose one of your preferences.

Go to him with empty hands— no hidden agendas, no crossed fingers, nothing behind your back. Go to Him with a willingness to do whatever He says. 

If you surrender your will, then He will “equip you with everything good for doing His will” (Hebrews 13:21).

It’s a promise."

- Max Lucado (On the Anvil)
