Moment of Complete Surrender

Resignation to Divine will

Placing our life in the hands of the almighty God, means we are surrendering completely our will to Him. When our life is in His hands, there is more bliss, tranquility, blessedness, more joy to experience being away from harm, worries, fear, loneliness and depression.

Upon waking up in the morning the first thing you need to do after reciting your prayer is to make a complete resignation of your will to the divine will, if you choose to do that your life is being attuned to God’s will and peace will flow into your heart, mind body and soul. Your burden becomes light as you struggle about health, finances, business, and difficulties. It gives you great relief and comfort while His hands are working for you.

Surrendering is not a sign of weakness but an act of trust. What does it mean when you surrender? By surrendering your life to Jesus Christ, you are allowing Him to enter into your life to guide your will and supersede your human power.

If one day you have these feelings that you cannot handle the burdens of the day on your own, you are subjugated, extremely tired, all consumed and soaked to the skin, empty, yet you still want to fight against the hostile, antagonistic situations that are intimidating you but still you fail

No matter what you do you cannot solve your problem alone or control your circumstances you need a mighty and powerful hand that can crack it out for you, no amount of human struggle can fix your problem except Him. It is in this moment that you need to surrender.

The problem may be huge, but it is in that huge problem where God is present in your life. It is through this problem that draws you closer to Him, He is very much aware of what you are undergoing at this very moment of your life no matter what it is and He is not too far from reach.

By letting Him to take over, you are acknowledging His supernatural powers to prevail, your situation improves, you become stronger, you survive all earth’s injustices, imbalances and life becomes wonderful.

By refusing to surrender because of pride, you live your life according to your own ways not His ways and continue to struggle for unanswered solutions.

You can ask God to take all what He has given you all that you have treasured, cherished and appreciated, your freedom, wisdom, memory, understanding and will. Surrender all these to be guided by His will. In so doing, you cannot ask for anything
