It's personal, a personal relationship with the Lord.

And to have the Peace that passes understanding, we can't get stuck in our understanding. I think that's where so many miss it. If they can't figure it out, in essence control the narrative, they're out.

So many attempting to follow the Lord don't want to die to self, take up their cross daily and follow him.

If He's to reign in your life, you gotta surrender your high places to Him. That's not always easy. Sometimes we have to reach the "bottom of our barrel" before we look up and ask Him for help, not too unlike the alcoholic.
