What Happens When we Surrender?

God knows you because He created you. He knows what’s going on in your life and has a better grasp of your thoughts than you do. God knows what you have messed up, that needs to be straightened. God knows what you have broken that needs to be put back together. God knows what you think is impossible and He has declared that nothing shall be impossible and that with Him. all things are possible.

God knows what you worry about in the late dark hours of the night, the things that keep you from getting the sound sleep you are so desperate for. God knows the reoccurring pain which flows from a broken heart that never seems to heal. God knows that you think your life is a total loss and He also knows better than you, that it is not.

God, who created you is the master healer, the divine author and the chief instructor to help you heal your heart hurts, discover the miracles that put the broken pieces back together and teaches you about the power inside you that will help you to overcome anything outside you that might try to take you down.

The secret to unlocking the miraculous healing that puts it all back together is SURRENDER. The first step of surrender is admitting and accepting that we are messed up. We tend to get distracted by how we got messed up, but it really does not matter how it happened, because once it has happened, the mess has to be dealt with. Once it happens to you, it belongs to you so the question is: What are you going to do with it?

God cannot do and will not do what we can do for ourselves. We can talk to others about our problems. We can blame whoever we want to for the bad stuff that has happened to us, but until we name it and claim it, then we cannot surrender and let it go. And if we want or expect God to do something about it, then we must do our part. Transformation takes place when we do our part, so God’s part can be unleashed and set free to do the miraculous in our lives and living.

Never Alone!

Your Creator did not create you to drop you off and leave you to fend for yourself. God is with you, has been with you and will be with you, every step of the way. There is nowhere you can go that God is not already there.

King David, the great Israelite King shared his understanding of this amazing truth, which can be found in the Old Testament book of Psalms, where he says:

”Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence? If I ascend to heaven, you are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there! If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me. If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night, ” -Psalm 139:7-12 ESV

God is the ”STUFF” of His creation and because of that, He is everywhere. Wherever I go, He is there. He is inside of me and outside of me. He knows every part of me. The hairs on my head are numbered, my thoughts belong to him before they roll off of my tongue and there is nowhere I can go, mthatbHe is not there. He lives in my heart, speaks to my mind and blesses me with ongoing conversation.

Whatever I do, He knows. Wherever I go, He’s there. There is nothing that can ever separate me, because He has made a way, where there was no way and therefore I am never alone and I never will be. And neither are you or will you every be alone.

You will never have a problem that God cannot solve. In fact, you will never face a problem that God has not already solved. His Spirit speaks to you, guides you, directs you in your thoughts, actions and reactions to a place of discovery where you can choose His way and wisdom.

No matter what fear you are facing or what darkness you might find yourself going through, you do not have to be anxious, because God is your love and light, chasing away the fear and illuminating the darkness. You are never alone! You are loved and you matter more that your limited human mind can understand. This is what you need to get, believe in and never ever let go of: YOU ARE NEVER ALONE!
