I SURRENDER

1. I SURRENDER my family and friends.

 I do not give up on them. I simply surrender them to the will of God so that even if their wills conflict with the Father's will, I will do only that which God calls me to do.

 2. I SURRENDER my ambitions, my job, my career, my future.

 This means that I am willing to go anywhere that He wants me to go and to take on any tasks that He wants me to take on.

 3. I SURRENDER my reputation, what people think of me and say about me. 

I need to be willing to care more about what God thinks of me than what any person thinks of me.

 4. I SURRENDER my pocketbook, my possessions, all that I claim as mine.

 I am willing not only to tithe but to give God control over 100 percent of what I have. Then I can say that I no longer own anything - I have given up all of it to God. Everything that I have is His.

 5. I SURRENDER my social life.

I surrender my recreations, my pleasures, my amusements as well as my relationships with the opposite sex.

 6. I SURRENDER my daily schedule.

 I give God not only my days and hours but my total life and all of my time.

 7. MOST IMPORTANT, I SURRENDER my will, my very self.

 And if I can do this, then I don't have to worry about the first 6 steps. This one step takes in all others, and this surrendered life is what leads us to daily victory.
