I'm going to be. I'm going to be. I'm going to be. Good morning.

God morning to you.

Have you said, God, you take care of it yet today?

Or Jesus, you take care of it, or Mother, you take care of it,

or love you take care of it, or simply you take care of it. Talking to that love without giving it a name, filling that love, and then talking to it, surrendering to it.

You know, the show The Chosen, I've talked about it in the past.

I haven't seen the fourth season yet, but I love Jonathan Rumi, the guy that plays Jesus.

I love his story of surrender.

He says he woke up one day in May of 2018 and had overdrawn his bank account. He had $20 in his

wallet and only enough food for the day. He had rent and bills due and he hadn't worked in three

weeks even though he had been training to be an actor auditioning for 15 to 17 years. He said he had surrendered everything to God

but his career. And he said he got on his knees in front of his crucifix and poured his heart out to

God. He said he was crying, crumbling, completely not knowing what to do, how to get out of the situation. And he said then he felt

an overwhelming sense of peace, that everything would be okay. And then later that day, he received

four checks in the mail. He also got that call shortly after to be on the chosen. He says, you have to surrender.

You're not in charge. God is. I can't underscore this enough. I found that surrender leads to salvation

in every way possible. Your self-reliance will not cure you. Your willpower won't save you. Your independence will not deliver

you. He says, I have to remember that everything that I have is because of him. Everything that I went

through was to get to this point where I surrendered to him. They say there's a place right before

surrender. Or you don't know what else to do.

Are you at that place?

Or you've tried everything, or you've done all that you can do.
