As You Wish: Finding True Strength in Surrender to God
by Mercy LokulutuSurrender may seem like the least likely path to a victorious life, but in the kingdom of God it happens to be the only way. We’ve been conditioned to think that surrender makes us weak. But nothing is further from the truth. Surrender to God gives you access to the very life you are searching for. It gives you the power to overcome suffering, it unlocks your identity, and it helps you realize that the past cannot hold you, trials cannot destroy you, and your future is sure. With inspirational stories and practical tips, As You Wish shows you how to surrender to God, do less on your own, and rely on Him to accomplish more than you ever thought possible. Jesus did not only speak about surrender; He also lived it. He asks us to do the same. Let go of your plans, liberate your aspirations, and release the dreams you have for your life. Love the Lord your God with reckless abandon, without reservation or personal agenda. This is surrender. Every day it’s saying to God, “As You wish.”

As-tu vécu? As-tu aimé? Cela importait-il?
by Bernard LevineIl y a une histoire qui dit que chaque matin, Dieu envoie deux anges du ciel pour venir nous rendre visite. Qui sont ces anges? Rencontrons-les… Le nom du premier ange est «Demandez»… et le nom du deuxième ange est «Louange». Ces deux anges portent des paniers. Lorsque nous regardons ce qui est à l'intérieur du panier du premier ange, nous constatons que le panier est plein, jusqu'en haut, débordant de nos demandes de prière à Dieu telles que `` donnez-moi une grande maison, je veux une nouvelle voiture, obtenez-moi un meilleur travail et je veux beaucoup d'argent. Maintenant, quand nous regardons pour voir ce qui est à l'intérieur du panier du deuxième ange, nous constatons qu'il est vide… ils disent que seulement parfois, juste au fond du panier, il y a un ou deux mots de louange. Pensez à Dieu… chaque jour, Dieu a beaucoup, beaucoup de nos demandes pour répondre de plus en plus à nos «demandes» et «désirs». Serons-nous jamais satisfaits et reconnaissants de ce que nous avons déjà? Dites-moi, avons-nous prié pendant tout ce temps en suppliant Dieu de fournir et pourtant, nous ne prenons presque jamais le temps de remercier Dieu que nous sommes vivants et de le louer pour chaque battement de cœur et chaque souffle. Ne serait-il pas merveilleux de chercher et d'orienter nos prières pour donner la louange et la gloire au «Donneur» d'abord, avant de nous concentrer autant de notre temps de prière sur la recherche des «Cadeaux» et ce que nous pouvons obtenir de la Dieu. Chaque jour, faisons de Dieu notre plaisir… car Dieu est tout ce dont nous avons besoin!
