What Surrendering Daily Looks Like For Me
Applying my Word of the Year to my Everyday
I chose my word of the year to be surrender for a number of reasons. I really feel like this is the perfect word to reflect on and use as a constant reminder. Since I love it so much, I really want to stay on top of applying it to my daily life. The best way to hold myself accountable is by writing random posts on surrendering.
Last year, I chose the word intentional. While I feel like I did strengthen relationships and gave my all, I don’t believe that I was super intentional about being intentional lol. This year, I am being intentional in my surrendering. (;
So, how do I apply this to my daily life?
I pray through the smallest negative emotions.
If I have a sudden rush of anxiety, I pray something like, “God, I have to trust that You are working in this. There is nothing I can do right now. These feelings are too much to deal with. Help me to focus my eyes on Your presence and not on these things that make me fearful.”
