Surrender is…

accepting His answer for today and being content and satisfied in it,

waiting for His answer with faith, patience, and peace no matter how long it may seem,

trusting His timing that is always perfect,

believing by Faith even though you may not see the answers or the end result,

trusting an all knowing God who is always up to our good,

leaving everything in His hands for safe keeping,

not closing our hands around the matter and refusing to let go, and

in humility releasing and yielding to Him who is faithful to all of His promises and loving toward all He has made.

Furthermore, surrender is trusting in the LORD with all your heart and leaning not on your own understanding in this way He will become greater and I will become less; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path (Proverbs 3:5-6; John 3:30)!!!

“He has brought me to the banquet hall, His banner over me is love  (Song of Solomon  2:4).  Therefore, I am going to allure her; I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her (Hosea 2:4).”
