The act of surrender
seems to you a weakness, when in fact it shows great strength.  In saying, “I surrender,” you are saying, “I
trust that there is something that is greater than I can produce at this
moment, and I welcome that assistance.”  We
are speaking now in a spiritual sense—surrendering to a true Power, not to the false
power of two or more egos battling over non-truths. 


To surrender to a higher
spiritual power shows that you know you are connected and part of something
greater and that help is yours for the asking. 
All that you are surrendering is the ego, which has no true power in the
first place.  And so, surrender is part
of awakening.

Open your eyes to the
fact that you are not alone.  In so
doing, ego has no choice but to take a step to the side.
