SURRENDER

“We have ceased fighting everything and everyone, we have to”, for unlike physical exercise, where the longer and more intense the workout the better shape we attain, the converse is true mentally. The reason for this is that God does the work, not our mental “muscles.” No amount of will power has ever added a single ounce of spiritual weight to anyone. We don’t “work” on our problems or difficulties since we have turned our will and our lives completely over to the care of God. Having chosen to live on the Spiritual Basis we know today that God is the doer. Not us. Pray when prayer is indicated. Meditate regularly. Turn to Him who has all knowledge and power when filled with fear and doubt and trust Him. Since in truth “all mental working should be relaxed, gentle, and unhurried for effort defeats itself.”
