"Remember Surrender" by: Sara Groves

Remember surrender
Remember the rest
Remember that weight lifting off of your chest
And realizing that it's not up to you and it never was

Remember surrender
Remember relief
Remember how tears rolled down both of your cheeks
As the warmth of a heavenly Father came closing in

I want to do that again
Why can't I live there
And make my home
In sweet surrender
I want to do so much more than remember

Remember surrender
Remember the peace
Remember how soundly you fell fast asleep
In the face of your troubles your future
still shone like the morning sun

Remember surrender
Remember that sound
Of all of those voices inside dying down
But One who speaks clearly of helping
and healing you deep within

I want to do that again
Why can't I live there
And make my home
In sweet surrender
I want to do so much more than remember
Remember
Oh surrender

Casey Casey Casey... what would i have done, this year, with out you? Im in the process of letting go.. yet again. It seems like as soon as i think im done, i have surrendered everything God shows me something new, and I get to start the process once more. I’ve heard it said that 07 was the year of the open door, and I must agree. I have opened so many doors this year, some good, some bad, some difficult and some filled with sorrow. I have found that surrendering to what you cant change and trusting God for the future is hard to do. But the penalties for not letting go equals being surrounded by greatness and not being able to taste it. Sara is right….. there’s a big difference between remembering and surrendering. Thank you for sharing this. I love you!
