As some of you may know, I entered into the season of children moving away&#8230;and dorms&#8230;and tuition, etc. \u00a0I can tell you that I wasted many mornings this past summer waking up entirely too early to worry about things that I had no control over. I worried about bank accounts and clothes for the kids and school and cars and gas money. I could have been relaxing, reading His Word with my cup of coffee, totally dependent on my Creator&#8212;Who knows more about life than I do and knows that all is going to work out the way it is supposed to. And it will work out to my benefit because He loves me so much. If I had only surrendered&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>He is our Redeemer and He paid the ultimate price for us&#8212;the Cross. \u00a0He is more than enough and He satisfies our every need. \u00a0The empty places that we sometimes dwell on are so easily filled with Jesus. \u00a0He is always waiting on us to invite Him in. \u00a0We were created with a desire for a relationship with God and we are not truly satisfied until we walk with Him and He lives in us and through us.<\/p>\n<p>What are you thinking that you need to hand over to Him today? As you listen to this song, ask God to reveal to you the places that you have not totally surrendered. \u00a0Then pray for the courage and the strength to give it all to Him. Then, and only then, can He complete you. \u00a0He wants you to have peace and blessings and abundant life with Him. \u00a0Do you know how free you will be? You will have peace and joy, and you will be able to sleep at night knowing that God never sleeps and He has you in the palm of His hands.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, God is powerful enough to simply just take your problems away&#8230;without any help from you. \u00a0However, He wants us to hand it over, truly and totally surrender it all. \u00a0Then you will be resting in Him, and there is \u00a0no better place to be.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Surrender your heart to God, turn to Him in prayer,<br \/>\nand give up your sins\u2014even those you do in secret.<br \/>\nThen you won\u2019t be ashamed; you will be confident and fearless.<br \/>\nJob 11:13-15 CEV<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<span style=\"color: #800080;\">* \u00a0~ \u00a0\u2665 \u00a0~ \u00a0\u271e \u00a0~ \u00a0\u2665 \u00a0~ \u00a0*<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Let us pray: Dear Precious Lord, You are all-knowing and all-powerful. You know what we need and when we need it. You are ready to take all our worries away&#8212;if only we will let them go and surrender them to You. \u00a0Holding on to problems and worries only keeps us from the life that You died for us to have. \u00a0Give us the courage and increase our faith so that when we encounter trials, we are ready and willing to hand them over and surrender. \u00a0Thank You for Your Word, that we can cling to it and, through You, can change lives when we share it. \u00a0We love You.
