Repost from @lindsaysterchi using @RepostRegramApp • I resonate with this SO much. Surrender is not weakness, and it’s not giving up. Surrender is HARD WORK. • Many times, when God asks us to surrender our plans and ideas in exchange for His, it requires SO MUCH from us. Surrender is not an invitation to withdraw from life or take it easy... it’s the first step towards the work God wants to do in and through us. • When surrender feels too hard, don’t miss that last part...it’s GOD who will work in and through us. That’s what surrender is all about. It’s His strength, not ours. • His strength flows through us as we step out in faith, as we show up and do the work and take action. • But first, we surrender. We let go of our way and step into the invitation of God’s way...which is usually not easier, but ALWAYS better. • {The pictured quote is from Jennifer’s amazing book “It’s All Under Control” which releases September 18th.
