Absolute Surrender
In a time of war, the white flag symbolizes one thing: Surrender.
In a time of war, to raise your empty hands in the air and to fall on one's knees symbolizes one thing: Surrender.
This is the greatest need of every person in all of humanity. We need to surrender our lives, our wills, our everything to a holy God.
Have you ever prayed an empty prayer? Have you ever tried to do better? Have you ever tried to be a better person? Have you ever tried to stop sinning? How did it go? Did you find yourself doing better for a day, a week, maybe even a month? Only then to find yourself returning to the same sin, the same problems, the same heartache? What went wrong? You relied on yourself and your own abilities. Your efforts were nothing more than morality. You need one thing: Surrender. To surrender one's life and will to Christ is the key to everlasting change. By faith, you must trust that God is capable of doing far more than you have ever imagined in your life.
Read Romans 12:1-2
Questions:
Have I surrendered my life to Christ?
What areas do I need help with? What areas do I need to surrender?
Pray and trust that God alone can change our hearts.
-Daniel
