"Surrender: Give in to grace"

Cheryl Richardson - Week 48 - Surrender: Give in to grace

This is an excerpt written by Jerry Thomas from a weekly newsletter from Cheryl Richardson. Great story!

"Besides being an experience of grace, this incident provided one of my earliest lessons on the link between surrendering and receiving divine support. Kushner's advice also spurred a critical shift in my relationship with a Higher Power. To this day, whenever I catch myself equating God with Santa, I remind myself to pray for something far more powerful — the courage and patience to hang in there while my faith is being restored.

If you're going through a difficult time, do yourself a favor: let go and give in to grace. Ask for the wisdom and clarity to meet your challenge with patience and dignity so you can allow the highest and best outcome to occur."

Take Action Challenge

"Is there an area of your life that feels out of control or a situation that's not going according to your plan? This week, practice the art of surrender. Each time you find yourself worrying (or obsessing) about the circumstances, repeat the following: "I surrender knowing that something far greater than I can imagine is on the way." Whether you believe it or not, use this phrase as a mantra, a powerful tool to bring you back into spiritual balance. Before you know it, you'll not only feel more at peace, you'll begin to *see* the power of grace operating in your life!"


Take Action & Trust!
When you let go and trust you'll find more and more support for letting go and trusting. Letting go is not giving up (apathy), it is knowing all is well and everything is unfolding perfectly. JF
