UNDERSTANDING SURRENDER



Everyone has problems, problems of all kinds and on planes… physical, mental, emotional etc… the big idea is to find best solutions to our problems, and for that all of us make our own efforts using our limited intelligence. If that does not solve then we seek help from outside. If that too fails then in the end each one of us turn to our God and earnestly pray to Him asking for help and guidance… prayers are answered all the time and every time we turn to almighty; some in affirmation and some in negation. When in negation, we wonder why God didn’t solve my problem or help me.
God speaks,” Surrender unto me”
We say,”we have surrendered”
God says,” no”
We say,”Yes”
…..and the argument goes on…
So where is the gap..? Once we say we have surrendered, we are not required to use our limited intelligence or use external help to solve our problems. But unfortunately we really don’t trust God also to solve our issues, as a result we don’t let go of our problems completely and surrender unto Him in totality. So in such a scenario God also can offer limited help… here we need to learn the art of complete/total surrender…
It’s as simple as saying…”I am yours and you are mine, help me, guide me o Lord”
Trust we all will be guided from within. Over a period of time we learn to recognize Gods voice also… then the action we take or do is totally according to god’s wishes. Circumstances change after that… all we need to learn is to have faith in Gods ways and”Totally surrender unto Him”
