Inviting Christ into our hearts

I just finished reading My Heart--Christ's Home by Robert Boyd Munger. This is a touching book in which the author, who served as professor of evangelism and church strategy at Fuller Theological Seminary, recounts his story of inviting Christ into his heart. He writes about how Christ explored the various rooms of his home, mind and heart, including:

• The Study
• The Dining Room
• The Living Room
• The Workroom
• The Rec Room
• The Bedroom
• The Hall Closet

It's a touching story that makes the reader feel vulnerable and think about the areas of our lives that we should bring out into the open with Christ. In the end of My Heart--Christ's Home, Munger writes about "transferring the title" of our life to Christ and the joy that it ultimately brings. As humans, we often feel that we can be independent. What we really need is Christ to be in charge of our lives.
