Surrender

To surrender means to stop resisting and to submit to God’s authority. You stop living a life where your selfish needs come first and start following God’s plans for your life. Through your process of surrendering to God you will find your destiny and purpose on Earth. In order to surrender we need to let go of some things and embrace the new things that come on our path.
