A Year of Miracles: Daily Devotions and Reflections (The Marianne Williamson Series)

by Marianne Williamson

Surrendering a situation to God means surrendering your thoughts about it. You’re programming your mind to think thoughts that are the most creative, positive, insightful, and beneficial. You’re not giving up responsibility or turning your power over to something outside yourself; you’re taking the highest responsibility for your circumstances, asking God to make your mind a literal touchstone for miraculous breakthroughs. You walk forward in the confidence that God provides. Surrender makes way for a larger sense of self—not the false self, but the true. It’s an expansion of our realization of who we are when we allow our minds to merge with the field of the divine. Dropping our sense of physical boundaries, we are open to the totality of our existence. In our emptiness, we find our fullness in God.
