A question that stirs thoughts of
battle or losing in the minds of many. We are taught to live life to its
fullest, to be dependent on ourselves, to conquer, to win, to overcome.
If we are able to visualize or paint an image of the result we wish we
can succeed. God's plan is quite the opposite. Learning how to surrender to God truly leads to a life of liberty.
It is the Holy Spirit that brings us to the cross and causes us to face the unvarnished reality of our desire to die to the world and sin. We will never live a life that is beyond our hopes till we have died to ourselves. Look at what a Dear Friend recounted referring to surrendering to God, "For me, this has been the best key to walking in joy, peace, and liberty is permitting Him to rid me of self (a whole life process)"
The enjoyment of surrendering your life to God is something that you must experience yourself. No one can rationalize it. You should experience what it suggests to surrender to God for yourself.
Surrender must come as a real reply from your heart. Think about the difficulties you are presently wrestling with and then imagine I say to you, "Just surrender them to God and give Him control." My spouse of 27 years died when she was only 51 years of age , and at first I wasn't prepared to hear those words: "Just surrender everything to God and give Him control." Those words would have looked wicked at that time in my life. However , as God graciously reminded me over the passage of time surrender is what He wants from us. His desire for my life is that I surrender to Him, giving Him complete control. (With time, it also became just what I wanted to do.)
Consider how you are carrying the burdens of hurt, pain and emptiness in your life. God doesn't want you to live with those burdens. He would like you to give Him every hurt, each discomfort, and every situation you're going through. There is nothing in this world more crucial or more exciting than surrendering everything to God. Your surrendering to Him will lead on to healing, evolution, and an abundant life, bigger than you ever imagined possible.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all of your methods submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
