Surrender- To give up possession to, to yield, to resign.
You know the song~ All to Jesus, I surrender. All to HIM I freely give. Worldly pleasures all forsaken.... I surrender all.....
Ive been thinking of this all morning.And Ive asked myself over and over. God what do you want me to surrender? What am I not surrendering to you? Or better yet have I surrendered anything to you?
I would say that I have surrendered my life to you. At 21 years old I finally surrendered and let you be LORD. And since that moment you have changed me. I am a new creation. I'm not who I was in high school. I'm not the same lost person I was at 20. I'm not even the same as when I first became a follower of Jesus Christ. I have grown spiritually. But I have so much growing to do. I get embarrassed at how little I know sometimes. But i desire to grow closer to my LORD. So back to that question. Have I given up anything really? Are we really to give up everything? Is GOD asking me to surrender something specific, right now? I have some studying and reflecting to do today.
