English term or phrase: pour out our lives
How many of us are expecting Jesus Christ to quench our thirst when we should be satisfying Him! We should be pouring out our lives, investing our total beings, not drawing on Him to satisfy us. Proszę o propozycje tłumaczeń innych niż wylewanie życia :)

całkowicie poświęcić nasze życia (służbie)
Explanation:
Jesus said to her “Give me drink” – John 4:7. How many of us are expecting Jesus Christ to quench our thirst when we should be satisfying him? We should be pouring out our lives, investing our total beings, not drawing on him to satisfy us. “You shall be witnesses to me…” – Acts 1:8. That means lives of pure, uncompromising and unrestrained devotion to the Lord Jesus, which will be satisfying to him when he may send us. Beware of anything that competes with your loyalty to Jesus Christ. The greatest competitor of true devotion to Jesus is the service we do for him. It is easier to serve than to pour out our lives completely for him. The goal of the call of God is his satisfaction, not simply that we should do something for him. We are sent to do battle for God but to be used by God in his battles. Are we more devoted to service than we are to Jesus Christ Himself?

oddać życie


Explanation:
Oddać życie Jezusowi może oznaczać nawet coś więcej niż ponieść męczeńską śmierć. Oddanie życia to oddanie woli, poddanie się w posłuszeństwo, zrezygnowanie z wielu złych nawyków, słów i myśli. Czyste życie jest największą ofiarą jaką można sobie wyobrazić. Jest również największym wyrazem wdzięczności za zbawienie. Jezus nie oczekuje niczego innego. Życie za Jego życie, ofiara za Jego ofiarę, miłość za Jego miłość. Oddać życie to znaczy oddać to, co w tym życiu Bogu się nie podoba. Z pewnością jest wiele takich rzeczy
