Surrender


The wise man in the storm prays God,
not for safety from danger,
but for deliverance from fear.
It is the storm within which endangers him,
not the storm without.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Inhale, and God approaches you.
Hold the inhalation, and God remains with you.
Exhale, and you approach God.
Hold the exhalation, and surrender to God.
- Krishnamacharya

The creative process is a process of surrender,
not control.
- Julia Cameron

If you surrender completely to the moments as they pass,
you live more richly those moments.
- Anne Morrow Lindbergh

When I see Spirit in everything, Peace is at hand.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie


Surrender to a Higher Power is a central tenet of 12-step programs, and is the key to recovering from depression, worry, and fear as well.
