"Built to Die" - Pastor Derrick Weston, Presbyterian Church of Mt. Washington
As Christians, we are called to Die.
Die to the noise around us, so that we can only hear God's voice.
Die to the people who are like us and put aside our differences because Jesus is bigger than that.
Die to our right to be right, so that we can forgive others the way God forgave us.
Die for the sake of the poor and the oppressed, so that the voiceless will have a voice.
Die to our own comfort.
God, help me die to my own desires and be willing to go wherever you call me to go.

God, help me die to my own desires and be willing to go wherever you call me to go.
