...my SURRENDER

...It has been way too long since I have blogged. Today I had some time to just rest and re-group. I went on a really long walk, borrowed my friend's Ipod and this song played randomly...randomly??? Nah! I believe God wanted me to hear this...I needed to hear it!

My Surrender

Does it all sound the same?

Are my words getting through?

I’ve been trying so hard and I’m about to break

So here I am with all I have

And I’m giving it all back to You

All back to You I surrender

Yeah, I’m giving it all back to You

All back to You

This is my surrender

Take it all

And what song can I sing

but the song that You give

I have nothing to bring

that did not come from Your hand

So here I am with all I have

And I’m giving it all back to You

All back to You

I surrender

Yeah, I’m giving it all back to You

All back to You

This is my surrender

All my plans and all my dreams

I’m giving it all to You

I lay it all down at Your feet

I’m Yours

So what song can I sing but this song?

I’m giving it all back to You

All back to You

I surrender

I’m giving it all back to You

All back to You

This is my surrender

Take it all

Take it all

Lord, take it all

Take it all

I love when God gets me all by myself...nothing pressing to do...and says..just be still be in My presence...let me shower over you with words that will bring peace to your heart.

Today was a very stressful day...at work..trees falling on my roommates car...you name it...and I just love that God loves me enough to let me be still in His presence and He loves on me with a love that fills me up. And that love makes me want to respond with this song...God...ITS YOURS...I give it ALL back to YOU...this is My SURRENDER! And then I ask myself..do I really know what the word "surrender" means? Am I really "surrendering"?

dictionary definition:

to yield (something) to the possession or power of another;

deliver up possession of

to give (oneself) up

to give up, abandon, or relinquish

In my life...surrender at times seems so difficult to do....yet the rewards of surrender make life much simpler...so my choice...to give it all up...my plans, my dreams...my ways...its all HIS!

I'm giving it ALL back to YOU ALL back to YOU this is MY SURRENDER!
