“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.”
- Hebrews 11:1
think of when you hear the word “Surrender”?
Does it have a negative connotation for you? Maybe phrases like “Raising the white flag,” “Throwing in the towel,” or “Giving up” come to mind. What if I told you that Surrender doesn’t have to be negative? What if I told you that through the Practice of Surrender, you could release yourself from all of your unmet expectations?
Through my own story of Surrender, I want to encourage you to identify the expectations that you are trying to manipulate into existence and let go of the burden and impossible task of forcing them to happen.
Surrender is the first step on your path to choosing Hope— but you can’t stop there. Through our This Is Living Hope: 8 Practices to Choose Hope in the Midst of Adversity digital workbook, we’ll give you eight practical exercises, beginning with the Practice of Surrender, to help you release yourself from unmet expectations, shift your perspective and choose Hope today.
Sometimes you need to be inspired and reminded to let go. Be encouraged by these powerful stories from other men and women who are practicing Surrender and choosing Hope in the midst of adversity.
