I Am a Wise Woman: A Morning Mediation Series by BwfwomanSample

The more you progress into the full richness of life that God has for you, the more you’re called to surrender. It seems counterintuitive to be asked to give up more when you actually want to receive more. But it is in your surrendering that you hand the control of this new level back to God. It’s almost as if you’re saying “God, I know I’m elevating, and even now, I surrender to you.”

Your surrender requires strength. Just a heads up – your surrender may cause some tears...your own and those of others. Be encouraged, though, because Psalm 30:5 shares that "weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." Your surrender might result in the stability you’ve always known being replaced with a new, irrefutable foundation from God. It will elevate your position. Your surrender is one of the few cases where laying down your life actually causes it to elevate…just like Christ’s life did when He chose to surrender.

The good news is that it is in your surrender, every desire God has placed in you can be suddenly and miraculously drawn into your life. Know this - the doors that God opens…no man can shut. Ultimately, your life is in God's hands. It's so good to know that God will complete the good work He has started in you. God will do in you what He promised He would do. How do you know that God will do it? We can believe God because:

• He is faithful to His Word. "God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful." 1 Thessalonians 5:24
• He is not a man that He should lie. "God is not man, that He should lie..." Numbers 23:19

Through His amazing demonstration of love, your Heavenly Father sent Jesus, who sacrificed His life for a purpose, which was to bring you into eternal life. What greater blessing is there than this?

Today, I encourage you to keep your faith. Invest in wisdom to finish the race that's before you – no matter what that race is. Whatever is set before you, know that you have what it takes to finish it, simply because you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

Today’s Affirmation

Today, God is showing you just how special your life is to Him - He loves you and He is with you. He is keeping you and blessing you as you live a life full of meaning and purpose. You are being celebrated by God, you are His treasure. You are worthy of this knowledge. Right now, allow the reassurance of this knowledge to settle in your spirit. Savor it, understanding that your God has a plan for you and that you will receive every good and perfect gift He has for you.
