我愿降服

“所以弟兄们，我以神的慈悲劝你们，将身体献上，当作活祭，是圣洁的，是神所喜悦的，你们如此侍奉乃是理所当然的。” -罗 12:1

有时候，我曾为是否要信任神来指引和掌管我的生活而挣扎。《罗马书》12章1节对我来说，是一个很有帮助的提醒，让我明白需要向主降服自己。这节经文激励我要将自己完全献给神，知道祂在我生命中的怜悯和良善。

向神降服不只是一次性的决定，而是在每一天，我们都需要致力使自己的意愿与神的旨意契合。这包括要放下我们的欲望、恐惧和野心，并邀请神按照祂的旨意，来引导和塑造我们的生命。这需要谦卑和信心，去放弃自己的计划，相信神的道路更高，祂的爱是永恒不变的。当我们降服于神时，会经历到真正的自由与平安。我们放下试图掌控结果的重担，转而接受神的主权。降服为神在我们生活中施行奇迹打开了大门，这就是把我们的软弱变为刚强，把我们的挣扎变为彰显祂恩典的见证。

如果你也在为降服于神而挣扎，我鼓励你恳切地祷告，请求祂帮助你明白，我们无法掌控自己的生命，只有神才可以。把你的恐惧、梦想和不确定性，都交托在祂大能的手中，要知道祂在乎你，并且期望你的生活能达到最好的状态。

祷告

天父，求祢帮助我们相信祢的计划，每天顺服祢的旨意。愿我们的生命成为你良善和信实的见证。阿们。

I SURRENDER

"I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship." - Romans 12:1

At times I have struggled with trusting God to direct and control my life. And Romans 12:1 has been a helpful reminder that I need to surrender myself to the Lord. This verse challenges me to offer myself completely to God, recognizing his mercy and goodness in my life.

Surrendering to God is not just a one-time decision; each day we need to commit to aligning our will with God’s. This involves letting go of our desires, fears, and ambitions, and inviting God to guide and shape our lives according to his purpose. It requires humility and faith to surrender our plans and trust that God’s ways are higher and his love is unfailing.

When we surrender to God, we experience true freedom and peace. We release the burden of trying to control outcomes and instead embrace God’s sovereignty. Surrender opens the door for God to work miracles in our lives, transforming our weaknesses into strengths and our struggles into testimonies of his grace.

If you wrestle with surrendering to God, I encourage you to pray earnestly and ask him to help you see that we can’t control our own lives—only God can. Surrender your fears, dreams, and uncertainties into his capable hands, knowing that he cares for you and desires the best for your life.

Father, help us to trust your plans and yield to your will each day. May our lives be a testimony to your goodness and faithfulness. Amen.
