Surrender

"For I know the plans that the Lord has for me, declares the Lord, plans for my welfare and not for evil, to give me a future and a hope."
(Jeremiah 29:11, ESV, personalized)
"Therefore, I will urge myself, in view of God’s mercy, to offer my body as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is my true and proper worship."
(Romans 12:1, NIV, personalized)
  • Lord, I recognize Your sovereignty over my life. Your plans are for my good, providing a future filled with hope.
  • I confess my tendency to get ahead of You.  There are times when I pursue things that I want without seeking Your guidance. 
  • I surrender my ways to You. Establish and guide my steps according to Your divine plan.
  • I surrender my entire being as a living sacrifice, including my habits, as an act of worship that is holy and pleasing to You.
  • I trust in You with all my heart, leaning not on my understanding. In all my ways, I submit to Your guidance, trusting that You will make my paths straight.
