I’ve always really disliked the words, surrendering and sacrifice because they sound so negative, as if I’m giving up my power or I’m going to become weak by surrendering.
But surrendering your resistance looks like this; I believe I walk my walk, and talk my talk so if my faith is truly what it is; that I believe everything is always working out for me; that I believe that I am held and nurtured; and that what I give out to the world comes back to me, why on earth would I ever have doubt or worry about anything when I can just trust in divine intelligence when I can trust in that higher God part of myself?
The word surrendering may sound like you’re giving up to some other thing outside of yourself, but we are all that God part of ourselves.
We are all connected to each other. Our faith is us. Our faith is part of our higher intelligence.
So let go of your resistance to the doubt of your faith.
Let go of your resistance to being free from anxiety or worry.
It seems crazy but we get attached to our default modes even if it’s not good for us.
Sometimes the journey is not the way we’ve planned it at all, sometimes it’s a bit rockier, or a lot more challenging than the picture in our heads of how we think it’s supposed to be.
So how would it be if when that journey is getting pretty challenging, instead of fighting it, honour what you feel.
Just Be in it.
Instead of staying in that fighting and resisting mode the whole time, take a deep breath, relax and drink some water.
THEN think, “Okay, well, this is interesting, God. This isn’t the way I planned it. But obviously, everything happens in divine time. And everything happens in divine order. And that’s why we’re in this perfect place right now.”
Even if it didn’t feel perfect, what if you relaxed into whatever it was and allowed the process to unfold as it is unfolding? Free from judgement, resistance, drama.
For me, that allowing of yourself to flow with whatever is coming your way, is what surrendering is which is essentially allowing. I like the word allow much better than surrender and sacrifice.
When you can practice letting go of resistance, then you’re also practising being in a place of divine flow, in divine order while having divine presence and divine timing.
Then it’s much easier to be aligned in your body, connected and one with God, that first love light, vibration part of yourself that we all have.
So I encourage you to embrace your situation.
You know, there’s so many times when you’ve gone through something and struggled and fought with it and then after, you look back retrospectively and think, “Hmm, well, if that hadn’t happened, then I wouldn’t have met this person and then that wouldn’t have happened and then I would never have done this and then I wouldn’t have learned all these great lessons for it happening that way.”
And none of that was the way that you planned it!
Sometimes we can’t see the gift in the situation because we’re right in the middle of it.
But if we can retain that kind of wisdom and knowledge when we are struggling, and obviously ask for help, it’s so empowering to have another person’s perspective — then it makes it easier to surrender that struggle.
Give that up to God. Give that up to the light. Allow your light and your flow energy to come in and to guide you wherever you’re going.
Then you can surrender all the tough stuff up to the higher power that each one of us has.
If you integrate that and practice that every day, your relationship with everything, most importantly yourself, your Sacred Heart self, will change.
You can stop sweating the small stuff, stop resisting all of the challenges around you so that you can learn to surrender them up to God and allow all of the goodness that is fundamentally your birthright to come to you now.
Sit with your feelings. Ask for guidance. Become inspired. Take Action. Become even more inspired. Laugh. Repeat.
