Brave
I bravely surrender to God’s will in my life.

Bravery can mean acting boldly and fearlessly, but it can also mean trusting God’s will in my life even when I don’t know where that might lead. Like the skydiver who surrenders bravely to a free fall, as I trust in God, I am assured my parachute will open.

If I feel inner resistance, I am not discouraged. I meditate on the truth of God’s love and have faith. Releasing my concern, I remember all the times I resisted a situation that later yielded good results.

I audaciously surrender to the wisdom of God within me. I know there may be a free fall—a period of uncertainty—but as I let go and let God, I land safely in new territory.
Those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.—Psalm 9:10

To stay clean and sober, is an act of bravery and courage. It often calls us to do things that are against all the teachings we have grown up with and have come to the conclusion about over the years of our journey. Even the ones called, "I am so hard done by," and/or "Why me, it is't fair," and/or "Everyone is out to get me," and the list goes on and on.

So often we focus on the negative instead of the positive. Life isn't about all negative, or all positive, for me, it is finding the good and not so good parts, accepting it as is, knowing it is subject to change.

To find that bravery, courage, strength, faith, discernment, etc. I need to take it to my God, and through Him all things are possible.

Surrender isn't about giving up. We surrender to win.
