Follower of Jesus: Do you want to live a life that is greatly used by God? Do you long to make a difference in the world?
Here's the deal. God uses a process to transform you into a person who is ready to receive all that He has planned. Sometimes He needs to strip some things from your life (whether character issues, people, etc.) that hinder you from being closer to Him and following your calling. Have you been through the "stripping process"? What did it look like for you?
