With my eyes closed I stare at the sun,
shutters down I am blinded.
I look away and open my eyes
and sun remains in my eyes.
With my eyes open I look at the Son,
Shutters rise and I see everything,
I close my eyes and slip away
and the Son remains in my eyes.

I'm absolutely blown away by this site. WOW!

That's good. Yeah, me too. I always seem to come to that. The constant surrender. Big God...little me. Without Him...I'm nothing. Yep, I surrender.
But one question emerges...after surrender...then what? I have to get up and follow. Overcome my fears...overcome my expectations...overcome it in Christ. Relationship. Pull to propulsion. Supernatural strength!!
Just a few remaining thoughts...

"But one question emerges ...after surrender...then what? I have to get up and follow."
I'm persuaded that NOTHING follows surrender. The object is TOTAL surrender. Our Lord himself showed us "the way"..."I do nothing" He said, "The Father in me does the works".
This is hard for us because once one totally surrenders there is no I to get up and DO anything. It's like becoming a glove on God's right hand.
For me surrender is amoment by moment battle with (not God) but self. Dying to self...or not I but Christ.
I love the title of Andrew Murray's book. "Absolute Surrender"..that says it all.
There is a wonderful very old, small paperback book called "Let Go" by Fenelon, I highly recomend it for those who wish to "give up" and surrender.

Hi, who is this? :)
Posted by: Denise | July 22, 2008 at 09:58 AM
Just discovered your site today. I'm meditating on the Greek word anostatosantes from Acts 17:6. Paul and his band are accused of leading an uprising all over the world.
I'm trying to figure out what it means to be a revolutionary for the kingdom that lies in our hearts. Your blog is an excellent start.

At some point over the last 2 years, you may have made an inquirey into purchasing one of several domains I currently own... mainly, www.theuprising.org. I am please to announce that I am placing this domain along with 7 other "Uprising" related domains up for sale (together as one big package deal). I am moving in a new direction and need to release these to someone who can use them properly. Please visit www.theuprising.org for more info if you are interested. Thanks.
In His Grip,
