It's easy for me to click on a poll and put myself in a good category, but what will I actually do?
In response to the other comments, I think in fact God has already spoken to us a lot about 'giving up' our possessions, and not just in the book of Matthew. Maybe we haven't been listening?

I agree completey with Van's comment-if I got the message in some way that I knew without a doubt that was what God was asking me to do, I'd be a lot less hesitant (though he'd have to give my husband the message too) :)

Hi Berni, Hope you got what you were hoping for. The thing I think most people want to be sure of is that it is realy God speaking to them. I mean if it is God saying give me eveything... hey he's God, it's all his to
start with, he can have whatever he wants.
