I Surrender

Today marks another year of the rest of my life. It hasn’t all been a bed of roses, but with the Grace of God in my mind and heart I’m holding on. I constantly race to solve my problems; I’m going through it all, by myself.

I am searching as a man trying to find the answer, but man will never know the depths of my struggles. I was only depending on myself for a hand, but that’s why I’m standing here alone with no one else. I realize I can’t fight these battles alone.

So I surrender to you Lord Jesus. I am coming out with both hands up. I tried everything I could to make it work, but everything seems to make it worse. Every road I went down there were no signs or instructions to lead me. It was lonely with no peace of mind. I was depending on myself to give myself a hand, depending on myself time and time again. That’s why I’m standing here alone with no one else. That’s when I realize I can’t do it all by myself.

I surrender to you Lord. I tried everything else. I surrender coming out with both hands up. I surrender. I’m sick and tired of going through it all. I need your help to find my way. I am weary but willing to make a change. I surrender all my wrongs because you will make them right. I surrender my situation, Lord, fix it for me. No more hesitations. I surrender my heart, my mind, and my life. I want to go with you to the bitter end. I surrender coming out with both hands up. I surrender.
