Should I Surrender?

Find Your Life

It is worth pondering: Is there any downside to not surrendering?

In verse 25, we see a clear warning for failing to surrender to Christ:

For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

Quite simply, anyone who seeks to save his life by pursing their own interests and rejecting God’s gift of Jesus Christ will live a shallow, meaningless life devoid of him and an eternity apart from him. While he may choose to bless people with earthly riches, those who reject him will have no place with him in heaven. Hell is full of “wealthy” people who never surrendered any portion of their lives—and especially not their souls—to God in Jesus Christ.

That’s why total surrender to God through faith in his Son is the most important decision a person can make.

In tIf you have not placed Jesus on the throne over your life, can I encourage you to do that today? Can I encourage you, my fellow believer, to make the choice to surrender all you have to God? I fear that if we, the body of Christ, don’t surrender all, we will stubbornly stick to man-made duty, honor, and plans that do not draw us closer to God.
