Day 10.....Surrender

"The heart of worship is surrender." I really like that. You know as a guy we're supposed to be tough and unwavering. We're not supposed to surrender or admit defeat, or the fact that we can't do it alone. We're also taught that real men don't cry. I don't mean crying because you spilled a glass of milk, but for serious things. Weeping is quite natural. And Jesus wept. And I don't know of any better man that walked the earth. He wept for the people.....for Jerusalem.......for His friend Lazarus. Surrender is paramount in our walk with the Lord. He understands that some can't surrender completely.....every single aspect of their lives. I know He wants it, but He is patient......and He is kind.

"What area of my life am I holding back from God?"

My complete and utter surrender of every aspect and every decision. There are still some things I really, really want control of I guess. I don't believe God wants us to be robots, but He is pleased with obedience. And sometimes I am less obedient than I should be. Praise God, He is patient. :-) James
