““Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way prosperity will come to you.” Job 22:21 NIV
Submit means to accept or yield to a superior force or to the authority or will of another person. Similarly, surrender means to give up possession of, to yield, to resign. On this Spiritual Sunday, I am encouraging us to be in surrender to our Lord, Christ Jesus. Whatever our worries are, lay them down. We don’t add another minute to our day by holding onto them. Whatever our dreams and plans are, lay them down. We can keep moving forward while submitting to His perfect will for our lives.
I encourage us all to listen and enjoy the words to the song, I’m Going All In by Brandon Lake, ft. Sarah Reeves. As we listen, think about this photo pictured here by Ray White. Even out in deep waters, God takes care of the birds. Some of the lyrics sing, “Cause your power’s found in the roughest waters, where I have no choice but to trust you, Father. Where my every fear has to surrender, I will trust in you forever.”
I am sure you have heard the Clemson Mantra, “All In”. Dabo Swinney says, “It’s a way of life here, and it’s about being committed to just doing the best you can with what you’ve got.” We too must be all in with God, not just on Sundays but a way of daily life. Instead of looking at our neighbors and being worried about what we don’t have, let’s do our best with what God has given us. Will you be All In with God, in full surrender?
