Can you get in God's Way? Yes, Jesus teaches it's easy to say one thing and do another, but that does not lead to the abundant, whole, transformed life He promised.  "I can give you a life you've never even dream of," Jesus said, "but first, you have to be open to changing your mind and changing your direction."  Mark 8:27-38 Thanks to the bibleproject.org for their teaching video called, Messiah, very helpful!
