“Jesus said to them, ‘ Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the
Father doing.” – Jn 5:19
You’re going to have to look at your life and just see
what you are doing certain activities for… how much it
is with Jesus and how much it is with me filling up on
the attractions of the world
My way of looking at surrender was a
sacrifice, I’m going to give this over to show
my love for someone else….but it’s the other
way round, it’s the love of God that compels
me to surrender
It’s not about sacrifice, it’s not about
surrendering objects to get objects, we’re
surrendering our heart to be filled with the
spiritual gifts.
The starting point, if one is clueless as
to what their path is in life, is to
surrender over time for prayer
Once we make a commitment of
surrendering 15 mins of our day, that’s as
big as a commitment as surrendering my
guitar….or how much money you want to
give to charity, because that’s the start of
the spiritual relationship with the Lord.
that one hour you spend with the lord,
is probably going to save you 15 years
of your life of doing the wrong thing
There’s more to surrendering, we surrender
because we believe that the Lord is willing
to come and fill us through the holy spirit…
but we can’t receive it if there’s nothing to
actually fill
How much does the Lord want?
Everything.
How much do I want to surrender?
Everything.
Why? Because he will fill me with
everything.
