What does it mean to surrender?

When we remember who He is, how could we ever think we could lead our lives better than Him?
“For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:9 (NLT)
“So we cared for you. Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well.” 1 Thessalonians 2:8 (NIV)
Freedom is not when we are in control calling the shoots… TRUE FREEDOM COMES FROM COMPLETE SURRENDER.
