Prayer of Abandonment #2

The second and third lines of the prayer are:

Do with me whatever you will
and whatever you do, I will thank you

Is this a prayer that we can really prayer and mean? "Do with me whatever you will?" Whatever? That means anything God wants to do with us we are not only willing to do, but are thankful for. What if God wants us to "sell everything we have and give it to the poor" or "get out of the boat and walk on the water" or participate in a ministry that we do not want to do or befriend someone we absolutely hate? Are we willing? Are we thankful?

Spend several days working through this part of the prayer. Mkae sure you mena it before you go on.
