Episode 209-Surrender the Hard Stuff

Why is this topic of surrender so difficult for us? As soon as I said that I answered my own question. \\u201cWe can\\u2019t surrender to God, because the only one we have ever fully surrendered to and trusted in is ourselves.\\u201d It\\u2019s hard to trust in Someone you can\\u2019t see.

While this is true, there have been many times when I have surrendered things to God that looking back now seem like small things. After we surrender them, they become easy because we\\u2019ve already surrendered them. We\\u2019ve already gotten through those issues. At the time, though, they were huge obstacles looming in front of me, daring me to go past them.

If we don\\u2019t surrender the hard stuff to God and let Him lead us, the thing God really wants us to do will not get done. Our life\\u2019s mission will not get done.

Surrendering to God and asking for His help makes the Hard stuff easy. You\\u2019ll look back and say like I do about losing 250 lbs, that\\u2019s the easiest hard thing I\\u2019ve ever done.
