Surrender


In 1999 I was broken-hearted. I kept on researching for Catholic prayers online just to help me feel better. I printed them out and forgot where I kept them.

I have moved so many times since then. It's been almost 8 years now. I was cleaning my living room the other day. I found this prayer just in time when I was having a breakdown. The only word I saw was the name of the prayer - "Surrender". I felt this was God's way of telling me something.

Go figure...
I looked up the website and it's still there from 1999. I copied and pasted the following from the website as a constant remembrance for me of what I need to do.

Surrender
Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess You have given me: I surrender itall to You to be disposed of according to Your will. Give me only Your love and Your grace; with these I will be rich enough, and will desire nothing more.
