I have a secret. Since I have discovered this secret, it has given me an abundance of peace and joy, that I would never have received otherwise. It has radically changed my life — for the better.

So, what is this secret? Well, you may be disappointed with how straightforward it is. It doesn’t require special training, or buying a bunch of stuff, or chanting some ancient mantra. Nope. For me, it was not easy at first. I wrestled mightily with doing this one thing, but in the end, it made all the difference — and I mean all the difference. And it may not be easy for you, either. But trust me, it is so worth it!

Are you ready for the secret? Okay, here it is… surrender. That’s it. That’s the secret. So easy to say, but often so hard to do. But in that act of letting go of all your worries, pain, fears, confusion, goals, and dreams, and trusting Our Lord fully with your life, is the secret to a life of abundant peace, joy, purpose, and love.

Now, go live the secret, and, by all means, share it!

I have been crucified with Christ; yet I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me; insofar as I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who has loved me and given himself up for me. – Galatians 2:19-20
