This Week’s Theme: Surrender

“All to Jesus, I surrender,

All to Him I freely give”.

Ever feel like you would rather take it all back?

Please, Jesus, I don’t want to let go of this dream, this plan, this small comfort. It’s too much.

If you heart echoes this prayer, or ever has, you are in the right place. We talk about the joys and celebration of the daily graces of overseas life, but we don’t sugarcoat it. When we walk this journey with the Father, we know that it will require surrender.

In a year of so much loss, how are you processing surrender? If you were part of the Unplugged “Here I Am” retreat this last weekend, did showing up for time with Jesus reveal things that need to be surrendered? Join us for some real and hard and joy-filled conversations on the blog this week. We love getting to read your words and hear your hearts as you share, so make sure you tag us @velvetashes or use the hashtag this week #VelvetAshesSurrender on social media.
