The heart of worship is surrender.
Surrender is defined as to yield to the possession or power of another. through the ages, human find it very hard to surrender to anything. surrender usually means your are giving up control of your situation, giving up your power, to follow the plans of another. this is more so in this age whereby technology has caused everyone to have an inflated view of their own ability and knowledge. sorry is a word that i hardly ever hear anymore, especially from people who really should say it.
surrendering to human is difficult. surrendering to God is another level of difficulty, or so it seems. with God, often, when you surrender, you dont get a preview of the outcome. this uncertainty causes a lot of people to be uncomfortable, and hence they resist. people wants to be in control.
hence, to surrender willingly, having trust is very important. you choose to trust that Him who you surrender to loves you a lot, He knows what's going on and He won't leave you to fend for yourself.
honestly, i dont know where my life is going. what the church will become in 3 years time. whether ill meet someone ill spend the rest of my life with. where am i going to work at next. do i like the uncertainty? of course not. its scary, much more scary than going on a trip myself (which i have since semi conquered!).. but that's the best part right? only in such uncertainty can i show my trust, and to know eventually that my trust is not misplaced.
