Quotes about Surrender

The sad truth is, if you push hard enough, and if you're so stubborn that you must have things your way, God will sometimes allow you to undertake a project without His blessing or at the wrong time. The problem with that, of course, is when you start something in your own strength and in your own timing, you're going to have to finish it and maintain it in your own strength.

If you're not seeing God move in your life right now, one of two possibilities must be considered. Either your requests are not God's best and will probably not be answered the way you'd like or it must not be the right time. If God were to answer that prayer the way you are hoping, it could interfere with his ideal plan for you.

God can do in a split second what might otherwise take you many years.

If you will remain at rest and hold your peace, then the battle is not yours, but the battle is the Lord's.

God's way is better than your way. His plan is bigger than your plan. His dream for your life is more rewarding, more fulfilling, better than you've ever dreamed of. Now stay open and let God do it His way.

A man's heart plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps. PROVERBS 16:9 NKJV

God will give us a peace that passes understanding." You're not going to figure everything out. If you let go of the questions of life, you will have a peace that goes beyond what you can understand.

If you hold on to what you want so tightly, it almost becomes an idol.

When we run to Him with open arms, casting our cares aside, He will embrace us. By having simple, childlike faith, we don't have to figure everything out. We don't have to have all the answers. We just trust Him. Won't you let that be you today?

God's plan is better than your plan. The beauty is you don't have to figure it all out. All you have to do is commit your ways to God, keep Him first place, and He'll guide you down the best path for your life.

When you understand that everything serves His plan, you won't live frustrated by things that aren't fair, stressed over things you don't like, upset because it's taking too long.

Be comfortable not knowing. Quit being worried over what you can't figure out. God has you in the palm of His plan.
