There is no power like that of surrender.
Wow. Now that does not even make sense at first. Surrender is not giving up, but putting the focus and trust on something greater than us. When we do that, we actually have access to the greatest source of power in the universe.
Looking at one of the great wonders of the world, Victoria Falls, the eye sees an incredible force. The power itself is invisible. Behind the water flowing with such force over the edge, there is an unseen power driving this natural phenomenon.
Nature is God’s reminder that He is always there for us, yet invisible. Showing that if we just trust, He will be that power for us too. Beyond anything we can imagine. The unthinkable, unimaginable, the impossible thing in our minds.
I didn’t think I could do this life sober. Not possible. I had tried so many times. If I could have stopped drinking on my own, I would have many years ago. Thinking so far into the future, trying to imagine that I could do this life without ever drinking again kept me stuck in the fact that I could not. The immeasurable power that came from surrender to God was the key to my obsession being lifted.
God did for me what I could not do for myself.
One day at at time.
“May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy.” Colossians 1:11
