Surrender

"Let go and let God"

There's this lie that we keep telling ourselves.  That if we really, I mean really, 'let go and let God', somehow we'll end up as a backseat driver in our own lives and never see the life we wanted.  But the truth is most of us have been stuck in commuter traffic jam hell in our lives, going the same route we see everyone else taking (so surely that's got to mean it's the right way, right?) but not really going anywhere.   When we finally surrender the driver's seat to God, He act as the GPS to our dreams and fast-tracks us.  Doesn't always seem like that when He takes us down the dirt roads in life but what He knows that we don't is, we'll save a lot of time avoiding the traffic jams that way.
