Surrender 

Romans 12:1-2 NKJV “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

We can sometimes see surrender in the light of all we must as give up, but we need to be reminded that Christ in us is the HOPE of Glory, so it’s not what we give up when we surrender, it’s about what we will gain as a result, in Christ you always get MORE than you can imagine: Life, Satisfaction and Fulfilment. See Ephesians 3:19-21
