It could be anything, something you think would make you A better christian and commit yourself better to the lord ? friends can give you opinions and only one thing in your life that has that impact.

I think the Lord is asking us to leave fear out of our lives. If we can do that then everything else falls into place.

We're going to leave everything behind eventually.  So now is a good time to start letting worldly things go.  The more the worldly things of life hinder our relationship with Jesus, the more we should want to let them go.  Does God really need to ask us to give things up?  Hasn't he already done that?  We are supposed to live Godly lives.  Shouldn't we know our worldly weaknesses already, and be praying to him to heal us?  I specifically prayed to be released from alcohol 12 yrs ago, and God healed me overnight.  I have never had the slightest desire to drink since that time.  But I suggest that we not choose to keep some sins, and remove others.  We should pray to God for a clean and pure heart committed to him.  100%.  Let God do the work in us.  It's the only way it's going to get done anyway.  And he wants to do it.  Ask and you will receive.

that only thing that would be very hard to give up (assuming that's really what you are asking) would be my wife.  Everything else is just daily dressing that I use to keep from being bored...   but my wife...   that's special.   Fortunately I would find it almost impossible to convince me that he would want me to give up my wife.   He might take her from me and I'd probably be very upset with him about it....    but I've been upset with him about her before and we worked it out.

If the love for God is first within then all else, even ourselves, is secondary to that... it is the new birth that stations that beyond our ability to that of God's ability
2 Tim 1:12
12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
KJV
