PostChapter 10: Purpose Driven Life

Chapter ten was about surrendering yourself completely to God. Alot of times we hear the word "surrender" being used as something negative like giving up or losing, but surrendering to God is a good thing, and it is the heart of worship. But there are three things that prevent of from surrendering to God completely: pride, fear, and confusion. Sometimes we let fear get in the way. We are afraid that God will try to take complete control over us and give us no will. But God doesnt force us to follow him, but he encourages us because he loves us, and love casts out all fear. WE have to trust him. Pride gets in the way when we begin to think too highly of our selves, as if we don't need God, or we refuse to except what God has for us. Remember that He is the creator, and we will never come close. We need Him, not the other way around. Also confusion gets in the way of surrendering-you have to understand what surrendering is. You cant partially surrender, and give only some things up for God. You must give your life, in everything that you do, and let it please God. It may not always be what you want to do, and can sometimes be a task, but you will be blessed.
