Surrender

Saturday 25th Apr 2009

Beautiful,

Surrender actually means; to give oneself up, as into the power of another; submit or yield.

When you surrender your life to God you actually give him control over it. You humbly step back and allow the creator of the universe to lead you and guide you. You give him the opportunity to orchestrate your life and lead you to where he needs you to be.

As you surrender, you let go and let God take control.

God loves you with an unconditional everlasting love. God knows everything about you, your past, your present and your future. He wrote your life for you. The man that wrote your life can be trusted with your life.

"Your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be."

"How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
 How vast is the sum of them!" Psalm 139:16-17NLT

All the days of your life have been written in Gods book before one of them came to be.

God is the author of your life, he wrote every detail. He loves you and needs you to trust him. He is the author, the scriptwriter the editor. He knows the end of your story and he   knows exactly what you need to go through so you do not miss a chapter.

"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." Hebrews 12:2NIV

When Jesus went to the cross he had your entire life on his mind. He had your entire life mapped out in front of him. He could see the beginning, the middle and the end. He saw every tear, every hurt and every painful memory. He saw all the moments that you would need him to rescue you. He surrendered up his life on the cross so that you could surrender your life to him. He made a choice to end his story so you could finish yours with him.

Beautiful, the best place for your life to be is surrendered in your Fathers arms.
