Kicking and Screaming!

I have been taking a class on Thursday mornings about Christlikeness.  I have been so challenged!  Every week we have a two session lesson, that just goes right to the heart of the matter.  Needless to say, I have felt a little undone.  What I learned this week is, that Christ is not wanting to change me, or for me to undergo some transformation, as I have ignorantly thought  in the past, but Christ is wanting to completely remove me.  I had this revelation this week, and it really messed with me.  All this time I have been wanting to be changed from glory to glory, but my flesh can have no part in his glory.  I actually seen my life pass before my eyes, as I knew the Lord’s ultimate goal is to get rid of me, and I have not really wanted to let go.    I wonder if this class is going to get any easier,  or if I am going to be kicking and screaming all the way through it?   We shall see.
