1 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,559 Speaker 1: Life Audio. Hey friend, Heather Creekmore here. Thanks for listening 2 00:00:06,580 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: to the Compare To Podcast today. I thought I was 3 00:00:09,460 --> 00:00:12,580 Speaker 1: finished with the Over the Influence series, but then I 4 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: got some emails from y'all and I started thinking about 5 00:00:17,180 --> 00:00:22,820 Speaker 1: just one more episode that could help you take what 6 00:00:22,860 --> 00:00:25,430 Speaker 1: we've talked about in the last four episodes and just 7 00:00:25,489 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: make this super practical and super applicable to your daily life. 8 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:36,449 Speaker 1: If you are someone who is influenced overly so, or 9 00:00:36,530 --> 00:00:39,449 Speaker 1: maybe not even overly so. And remember, we talked about 10 00:00:39,490 --> 00:00:42,489 Speaker 1: there's lots of different forms of influence. It could just 11 00:00:42,530 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 1: be that you're buying every single thing that you scroll 12 00:00:45,580 --> 00:00:47,770 Speaker 1: by and But it could also be that you're kind 13 00:00:47,810 --> 00:00:50,150 Speaker 1: of afraid to make a decision that mom would disagree 14 00:00:50,190 --> 00:00:54,820 Speaker 1: with or you decide to do something or that you 15 00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: like something and then you're in a group of people 16 00:00:57,620 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 1: and they all think that that's a really crazy opinion. 17 00:01:00,140 --> 00:01:04,190 Speaker 1: And so you change your opinion because you're kind of 18 00:01:04,250 --> 00:01:07,270 Speaker 1: people pleasing or you're afraid of what would happen if 19 00:01:07,330 --> 00:01:09,990 Speaker 1: you go against the crowd. There's all different ways that 20 00:01:10,030 --> 00:01:12,149 Speaker 1: we're influenced. And today I want to talk about how 21 00:01:12,290 --> 00:01:16,660 Speaker 1: we can bring the Lord in. We have the Holy 22 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,820 Speaker 1: Spirit living inside us. You are A believer and follower 23 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,350 Speaker 1: of Jesus Christ, you have the Holy Spirit inside you. 24 00:01:22,410 --> 00:01:25,009 Speaker 1: He is your helper, he's your comforter, he's your counselor, 25 00:01:25,410 --> 00:01:28,610 Speaker 1: but he is there to guide you. And we don't 26 00:01:28,750 --> 00:01:31,590 Speaker 1: tap into that enough. We did an episode on what 27 00:01:31,630 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: it looks like to be spirit-led, but today I just 28 00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:36,940 Speaker 1: want to make that even more practical. What does this 29 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: look like daily? How can you daily determine not to 30 00:01:42,459 --> 00:01:46,709 Speaker 1: be influenced, to be over the influence, not under the influence? 31 00:01:47,740 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: and surrender to the Holy Spirit. That's where we're going today. 32 00:01:49,780 --> 00:01:52,060 Speaker 1: I'm glad you're here for it. Hey, if this is helpful, 33 00:01:52,190 --> 00:01:54,530 Speaker 1: share this episode with a friend, leave us a review, 34 00:01:54,770 --> 00:01:57,590 Speaker 1: all of those things. Bless us here at the Compare 35 00:01:57,630 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: To Podcast. Thanks for listening. Now let's get to today's episode. Hey, 36 00:02:12,860 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you're here today to learn about how 37 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,350 Speaker 1: to do a daily surrender. Now, I've got to be 38 00:02:20,370 --> 00:02:22,290 Speaker 1: honest with you, something that God has been working on 39 00:02:22,350 --> 00:02:27,130 Speaker 1: me on a year or more, but definitely within the 40 00:02:27,150 --> 00:02:29,850 Speaker 1: last year, because I started writing this book. It's called 41 00:02:29,870 --> 00:02:33,190 Speaker 1: Did I Say the Right Thing and a Million Other 42 00:02:33,350 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: Microfears That Hold Christian Women Back. And this is really 43 00:02:38,940 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: a book that came out of 10 years of working 44 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,470 Speaker 1: with clients, working with Christian women and In some cases, 45 00:02:47,510 --> 00:02:50,470 Speaker 1: women who had been following Jesus for decades and decades 46 00:02:51,210 --> 00:02:56,150 Speaker 1: and finding kind of what was underneath all of their 47 00:02:56,230 --> 00:02:59,260 Speaker 1: body image and food and insecurity issues. We really dug 48 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,780 Speaker 1: in and I kept finding the same thing underneath over 49 00:03:02,820 --> 00:03:06,700 Speaker 1: and over again. And that thing underneath is this thing 50 00:03:06,740 --> 00:03:09,619 Speaker 1: I called micro fears. And micro fears are these little 51 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,910 Speaker 1: tiny fears that are so tiny you don't even think 52 00:03:11,950 --> 00:03:13,940 Speaker 1: about them. And so this is all in my brand 53 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,970 Speaker 1: new book, comes out February 2nd, 2027. You can order 54 00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:21,010 Speaker 1: it on Amazon now. Pre-ordering it is a blessing to me. 55 00:03:21,030 --> 00:03:23,530 Speaker 1: It's called Did I Say the Right Thing? But here's 56 00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:25,590 Speaker 1: where I want to go with that today. There's one 57 00:03:25,690 --> 00:03:28,530 Speaker 1: lesson from that, and this is in the book, that 58 00:03:28,669 --> 00:03:32,780 Speaker 1: God was showing me. And actually, we were watching The Chosen, 59 00:03:32,820 --> 00:03:35,660 Speaker 1: and that kind of reinforced this a little bit. But 60 00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:38,060 Speaker 1: it occurred to me that the disciples didn't wake up 61 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: every morning And go to Jesus and say, here are 62 00:03:41,780 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: my 27 things to do today. And Jesus, I need 63 00:03:45,580 --> 00:03:47,540 Speaker 1: your help with three, five, and seven. I've got the 64 00:03:47,580 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: rest covered. That is not how the disciples lived. They 65 00:03:51,860 --> 00:03:56,700 Speaker 1: lived a life where they quite literally just followed him. 66 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:02,850 Speaker 1: And in order to just follow Jesus, that requires something 67 00:04:02,930 --> 00:04:08,260 Speaker 1: from us. It requires surrender. Surrender. It requires me to 68 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,900 Speaker 1: lay down my agenda. It requires me to lay down, oh, 69 00:04:13,700 --> 00:04:16,340 Speaker 1: this is tough, but like, honestly, all the ways that 70 00:04:16,380 --> 00:04:18,980 Speaker 1: I think I can do things on my own. I mean, 71 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: it's so yicky to admit, but I think you can relate. 72 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,980 Speaker 1: Like there's things in my life that I actually believe 73 00:04:26,180 --> 00:04:29,219 Speaker 1: I have handled on my own that perhaps I don't 74 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:34,950 Speaker 1: need God's help for. Yikes. That's not the life of surrender. 75 00:04:34,970 --> 00:04:38,070 Speaker 1: In fact, that's arrogance and pride. And I have to 76 00:04:38,130 --> 00:04:44,450 Speaker 1: repent of this regularly. But the life of surrender is one, 77 00:04:44,470 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: and we talked about humility a bit last time as 78 00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:50,380 Speaker 1: we talked about the difference between knowledge and wisdom. And 79 00:04:51,020 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: the wise person is humble. But it's approaching every day 80 00:04:56,900 --> 00:05:02,710 Speaker 1: with this wisdom, this humility that to say, oh my, 81 00:05:03,010 --> 00:05:08,050 Speaker 1: I cannot do any part of life on my own. 82 00:05:09,370 --> 00:05:14,950 Speaker 1: I am completely dependent on you, God, in every way. 83 00:05:15,870 --> 00:05:22,010 Speaker 1: And friend, that's what it means to follow Jesus. That's 84 00:05:22,130 --> 00:05:26,830 Speaker 1: what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. That's 85 00:05:26,890 --> 00:05:29,550 Speaker 1: what it means to be a servant of or a 86 00:05:29,710 --> 00:05:33,150 Speaker 1: slave to the language Paul used. I know it's a 87 00:05:33,150 --> 00:05:35,270 Speaker 1: little uncomfortable language, but this is the language that Paul 88 00:05:35,370 --> 00:05:37,250 Speaker 1: uses in the New Testament, that he is a slave 89 00:05:37,670 --> 00:05:40,550 Speaker 1: to Christ. When you are a slave, you don't get 90 00:05:40,589 --> 00:05:45,890 Speaker 1: to make any decisions for yourself, do you? You are surrendered, 91 00:05:46,630 --> 00:05:50,500 Speaker 1: maybe not willingly, but you are surrendered to your master. 92 00:05:53,310 --> 00:05:56,140 Speaker 1: And that is how we are supposed to live the 93 00:05:56,220 --> 00:06:01,099 Speaker 1: Christian life. It's about surrender. Now, here's the other thing 94 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: that I think is really tricky for those of us 95 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: who have been believers for a long time. We think 96 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,750 Speaker 1: when we said the sinner's prayer, we surrendered. We believe 97 00:06:11,770 --> 00:06:15,930 Speaker 1: it was a one and done. I prayed the prayer. 98 00:06:16,230 --> 00:06:19,430 Speaker 1: I'm good. I surrender my life to Jesus. Boom. Check 99 00:06:19,470 --> 00:06:24,330 Speaker 1: the box. Going to heaven. I'm set. But here's the 100 00:06:24,450 --> 00:06:30,270 Speaker 1: thing maybe you've noticed too. Goodness, it's hard to stay 101 00:06:30,330 --> 00:06:34,430 Speaker 1: in a posture of surrender. And me saying the sinner's 102 00:06:34,490 --> 00:06:37,710 Speaker 1: prayer at, I was probably four or five years old. 103 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: And then I probably said it a hundred more times 104 00:06:40,500 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: every time there was an altar call and there was 105 00:06:43,020 --> 00:06:45,300 Speaker 1: preaching about hellfire and brimstone. I mean, I said it 106 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:51,060 Speaker 1: again just to be sure, right? But the challenge is, 107 00:06:53,529 --> 00:06:57,669 Speaker 1: Surrender is a daily decision. I think about a scripture 108 00:06:57,710 --> 00:07:01,530 Speaker 1: that says, take up your cross daily. It is a 109 00:07:01,790 --> 00:07:05,050 Speaker 1: daily decision. Who am I going to follow today? Am 110 00:07:05,110 --> 00:07:09,099 Speaker 1: I going to follow the voices of influence? Am I 111 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,540 Speaker 1: going to follow what Instagram says I should make my 112 00:07:11,580 --> 00:07:14,500 Speaker 1: day about? What TikTok, what YouTube says I should make 113 00:07:14,540 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: my day about? Am I going to follow my own agenda, 114 00:07:17,940 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: what I want to make my day about? What I 115 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: feel is most important, what I want to do today 116 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,850 Speaker 1: or even other people. Like, am I just going to, okay, well, 117 00:07:27,910 --> 00:07:31,030 Speaker 1: I mean, we just, if you work and have a boss, like, 118 00:07:31,070 --> 00:07:34,110 Speaker 1: of course, that boss has a say in what you do. 119 00:07:34,130 --> 00:07:37,340 Speaker 1: That's not what I'm talking about here. But what about 120 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: if it's mom and you're a 50 year old woman? Okay. 121 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 1: You're an adult. You get to make your own decisions. 122 00:07:46,790 --> 00:07:49,510 Speaker 1: And yet, Do I decide what I'm going to do 123 00:07:49,570 --> 00:07:52,310 Speaker 1: based on what would make other people in my family 124 00:07:52,370 --> 00:07:55,230 Speaker 1: happy or what other people in my family are expecting 125 00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:58,010 Speaker 1: me to do or demanding of me to do or 126 00:07:58,070 --> 00:07:59,570 Speaker 1: want me to do? Am I just trying to keep 127 00:07:59,670 --> 00:08:02,900 Speaker 1: everyone else happy and forgetting that I am a slave 128 00:08:02,940 --> 00:08:06,020 Speaker 1: to Christ? He is the one I'm supposed to be pleasing, 129 00:08:06,500 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: not myself. Oh, friends, our culture has messed that up 130 00:08:09,860 --> 00:08:13,420 Speaker 1: for us big time where we actually believe it's biblical 131 00:08:13,580 --> 00:08:17,740 Speaker 1: to just serve ourselves and make ourselves happy and And 132 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,390 Speaker 1: have all these desires for ourselves that we need to 133 00:08:20,450 --> 00:08:23,170 Speaker 1: fulfill and that that's a good thing and somehow biblical. 134 00:08:23,210 --> 00:08:27,050 Speaker 1: It's not biblical. I am to die to self. That's 135 00:08:27,090 --> 00:08:30,330 Speaker 1: pretty severe language. But it doesn't sound like I'm to 136 00:08:30,410 --> 00:08:34,170 Speaker 1: indulge myself. I'm to die to self. I am to 137 00:08:34,350 --> 00:08:39,860 Speaker 1: die to these opinions of others and be a follower 138 00:08:39,940 --> 00:08:45,359 Speaker 1: of Jesus only. And so friends, this is something we 139 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:51,510 Speaker 1: have to be intentional about. Every single day. Every day 140 00:08:51,580 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: we have to hand it over. It's not a one-time decision. 141 00:08:55,790 --> 00:08:59,199 Speaker 1: It's not a mountaintop moment. This is a daily, and 142 00:08:59,660 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to say really a small, daily practice of surrender. Okay, 143 00:09:05,620 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: so what does surrender mean? This is a really tricky one, 144 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,900 Speaker 1: especially for those of us who hate to feel weak, 145 00:09:14,620 --> 00:09:17,870 Speaker 1: who hate to feel powerless. who hate to feel lazy. 146 00:09:17,929 --> 00:09:20,270 Speaker 1: That's a big issue for those of us with body 147 00:09:20,290 --> 00:09:23,770 Speaker 1: image and food issues. Oh, we're so afraid of feeling 148 00:09:23,830 --> 00:09:29,030 Speaker 1: or looking lazy or unsuccessful. These are big drivers for 149 00:09:29,070 --> 00:09:30,830 Speaker 1: body image and food issues. And if you've never made 150 00:09:30,870 --> 00:09:33,910 Speaker 1: that connection, hey, grab a time with me or with 151 00:09:33,990 --> 00:09:36,750 Speaker 1: Tara to do some coaching because this will change your 152 00:09:36,770 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: life once you figure out what you're really going for 153 00:09:40,660 --> 00:09:43,820 Speaker 1: through trying to change your body and through obsessing over food. 154 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:49,510 Speaker 1: But Surrender, what surrender means, isn't giving up. It's not 155 00:09:49,550 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: like the white flag at the end of the war. 156 00:09:52,300 --> 00:09:54,380 Speaker 1: I mean, that could be a definition of surrender. It 157 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,929 Speaker 1: is a definition of surrender, of course, right? But as 158 00:09:57,990 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: we're talking about it here, this isn't about giving up 159 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:06,580 Speaker 1: and doing nothing. And this isn't about being passive. This 160 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,900 Speaker 1: is about trust. This is not a decision to be 161 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,150 Speaker 1: lazy and sit on the couch. This is a decision 162 00:10:14,190 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: where you are saying, oh, yes, I am intentionally determining 163 00:10:20,179 --> 00:10:27,190 Speaker 1: that I trust God with everything, with every aspect of 164 00:10:27,250 --> 00:10:30,410 Speaker 1: my life, that God is good and he can be 165 00:10:30,490 --> 00:10:36,569 Speaker 1: trusted with my plans, but with my life, that I 166 00:10:36,750 --> 00:10:41,140 Speaker 1: am safe to turn all of this over to him 167 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:46,580 Speaker 1: and I can unclench my fists. I can relinquish everything. 168 00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:54,590 Speaker 1: some control. I can even surrender the outcome, right? Because 169 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,490 Speaker 1: even if the outcome isn't what I hope the outcome 170 00:10:56,530 --> 00:10:59,849 Speaker 1: will be, I can have a solid enough theology to 171 00:10:59,890 --> 00:11:02,110 Speaker 1: know that God is good. And even if it doesn't 172 00:11:02,130 --> 00:11:04,410 Speaker 1: work out the way that I think it should work 173 00:11:04,570 --> 00:11:06,850 Speaker 1: out or feel like it needs to work out in 174 00:11:06,910 --> 00:11:09,359 Speaker 1: order for the rest of everything else to go well, 175 00:11:09,380 --> 00:11:14,170 Speaker 1: I can surrender and say, God knows best. And all 176 00:11:14,190 --> 00:11:15,780 Speaker 1: of this is in my new book too. So if 177 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: this is interesting to you, hey, I really hope you'll 178 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,300 Speaker 1: go grab a copy of Did I Say the Right 179 00:11:20,340 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: Thing on Amazon. You get the pre-order price guarantee and 180 00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:26,780 Speaker 1: it's cheaper than, books are getting really expensive, aren't they? 181 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,890 Speaker 1: Everything is, I suppose. But it's cheaper right now. So 182 00:11:29,929 --> 00:11:31,290 Speaker 1: just go grab it, throw it in your cart, and 183 00:11:31,330 --> 00:11:32,410 Speaker 1: then you don't even have to think about it. When 184 00:11:32,429 --> 00:11:37,050 Speaker 1: it comes out, it'll arrive at your home. But this 185 00:11:37,150 --> 00:11:44,809 Speaker 1: concept is really pivotal in, to seeing where you are 186 00:11:45,230 --> 00:11:49,810 Speaker 1: in your walk of faith. This is another big theme 187 00:11:49,850 --> 00:11:54,179 Speaker 1: in the book, but faith is actually the same word 188 00:11:54,220 --> 00:11:58,380 Speaker 1: in Greek as believe and confidence and even trust. Although 189 00:11:58,420 --> 00:12:00,780 Speaker 1: trust isn't really a word used through the New Testament 190 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: very much. And the word is pistis in Greek. And 191 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: what that showed me was that as Americans, we say 192 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,050 Speaker 1: things like, well, of course I believe in God. it's 193 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: just hard for me to trust him. I have trust 194 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,260 Speaker 1: issues or, you know, I have faith. Yes, I'm a 195 00:12:15,300 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: person of great faith. I believe that I have great faith. Oh, 196 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:24,260 Speaker 1: but trust, that's hard. You actually biblically can't separate those concepts. 197 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,990 Speaker 1: They're all the same. If you are believing biblically, then 198 00:12:29,030 --> 00:12:31,490 Speaker 1: you are trusting biblically and putting all your confidence in 199 00:12:31,530 --> 00:12:35,670 Speaker 1: God biblically and having faith biblically, right? You cannot segment 200 00:12:35,730 --> 00:12:38,650 Speaker 1: having faith from belief, from trust, from having confidence in. 201 00:12:39,429 --> 00:12:42,910 Speaker 1: And that was mind blowing to me. And what that 202 00:12:42,990 --> 00:12:46,610 Speaker 1: showed me was for me to say that I have faith, 203 00:12:47,570 --> 00:12:52,190 Speaker 1: I actually have to do this daily surrender thing, right? 204 00:12:52,620 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: Do I really have faith if my whole life is 205 00:12:55,860 --> 00:12:59,460 Speaker 1: controlled by me? Is that really faith in God? If 206 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: I have a tight fist on every single outcome and 207 00:13:01,980 --> 00:13:03,970 Speaker 1: I know exactly how things are going to go, from 208 00:13:04,010 --> 00:13:06,429 Speaker 1: minute to minute, hour to hour, because I have planned 209 00:13:06,570 --> 00:13:09,729 Speaker 1: so well and prepared so well and taken care of 210 00:13:09,809 --> 00:13:12,650 Speaker 1: all the possible contingencies of things that could go wrong. 211 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: I am an Uber planner. I am organized. I'm on 212 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,380 Speaker 1: top of it. I've got such tight control of my 213 00:13:18,540 --> 00:13:24,660 Speaker 1: life that I don't leave any room for the Holy 214 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,250 Speaker 1: Spirit to lead anything. But I say I have faith. 215 00:13:28,330 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: Those two things don't necessarily go together. I know that's hard. 216 00:13:34,020 --> 00:13:36,370 Speaker 1: I'm sorry if I'm hurting you or stepping on your 217 00:13:36,380 --> 00:13:42,270 Speaker 1: toes here. But the life of faith isn't that. And 218 00:13:42,330 --> 00:13:45,809 Speaker 1: here's where that's good news. It's a lot of pressure 219 00:13:45,870 --> 00:13:47,850 Speaker 1: to live that way. Some of you know it. It's 220 00:13:48,330 --> 00:13:51,070 Speaker 1: just a ton of pressure trying to keep everyone happy, 221 00:13:51,090 --> 00:13:53,030 Speaker 1: trying to keep yourself happy, trying to get everything going 222 00:13:53,130 --> 00:13:55,710 Speaker 1: smooth on time, all the time, just the way you 223 00:13:55,750 --> 00:13:59,530 Speaker 1: like it, you know, keeping a very tight leash on 224 00:13:59,950 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: Tight control over every aspect of life is exhausting. And 225 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,100 Speaker 1: Jesus says he brings us rest. But you don't get 226 00:14:10,179 --> 00:14:15,140 Speaker 1: the rest and to keep all your control stuff. Those 227 00:14:15,179 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: two things don't go together. Because with all your control stuff, 228 00:14:18,350 --> 00:14:21,950 Speaker 1: who's leading? Who do you really have faith in? You 229 00:14:21,990 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: have faith in yourself that you're going to pull it off. right? 230 00:14:25,500 --> 00:14:27,700 Speaker 1: That you're going to make everything happen. And that's not 231 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,700 Speaker 1: faith in God. And again, I'm going to talk about 232 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,660 Speaker 1: this more in early 2027 when the new book comes out. 233 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,140 Speaker 1: So I'm excited for more opportunities for us to talk 234 00:14:37,180 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: about this because I think this is going to be 235 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,340 Speaker 1: life-changing for you. Some of you have been following Jesus 236 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: for a long time, but not living this life of 237 00:14:45,660 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: surrendered faith. And that's where the freedom is. And maybe 238 00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: if you've been following Jesus, you're like, I don't know 239 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,500 Speaker 1: why I'm not peaceful. I don't know why I don't 240 00:14:52,540 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: have rest. I'm doing all the Christian things and I'm 241 00:14:55,620 --> 00:14:59,060 Speaker 1: still struggling. I don't feel safe. I don't feel secure. 242 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,620 Speaker 1: I have a lot of fear. That's what this book addresses. 243 00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: And that's what we're going to get into in episodes 244 00:15:04,420 --> 00:15:06,620 Speaker 1: in the next year. So let's go back to what 245 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:11,500 Speaker 1: do you do? This daily surrender. What does that look like? 246 00:15:12,850 --> 00:15:17,410 Speaker 1: It can be super simple. Okay. And here's what I do. 247 00:15:18,740 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: I am part of this discipleship program now where we 248 00:15:22,020 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: read one chapter from the Gospels every single day. And 249 00:15:24,860 --> 00:15:28,580 Speaker 1: then I've got a weekly accountability group with some women 250 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: that I'm discipling. And the idea is that these women 251 00:15:31,780 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm discipling will go on and disciple other women and 252 00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: so that it will be contagious, for lack of a 253 00:15:36,820 --> 00:15:42,350 Speaker 1: better word. But before you read your chapter in the Gospels, 254 00:15:42,730 --> 00:15:45,210 Speaker 1: you just pray a simple prayer. Like, God, show me 255 00:15:45,250 --> 00:15:47,970 Speaker 1: what you want me to see as I read today. 256 00:15:48,230 --> 00:15:52,050 Speaker 1: Speak to me. And I surrender. I surrender my day 257 00:15:52,170 --> 00:15:54,229 Speaker 1: to you. I surrender this reading time to you and 258 00:15:54,270 --> 00:15:57,150 Speaker 1: I surrender my day to you. And then after you 259 00:15:57,220 --> 00:16:00,180 Speaker 1: read your chapter in the Gospels, what you do is 260 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: you really just kind of sit and listen and wait 261 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: for the Holy Spirit to speak to you. That might 262 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,290 Speaker 1: be really weird for some of you. I mean, I 263 00:16:09,610 --> 00:16:12,390 Speaker 1: meet a lot of Christian women that read their Bible 264 00:16:12,470 --> 00:16:14,910 Speaker 1: and they pray, but it's kind of more of a 265 00:16:14,990 --> 00:16:17,930 Speaker 1: one-way conversation. The prayer is like, God, here's what I need. 266 00:16:17,950 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: There's my list. It might be abnormal for you to 267 00:16:21,910 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: think about sitting in quiet and waiting to listen. And 268 00:16:24,700 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: remember the Holy Spirit speaks in a still small voice, 269 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,940 Speaker 1: probably not audible, although that could happen, but that's not likely, right? 270 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,780 Speaker 1: It's a still small voice where he's going to speak 271 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,180 Speaker 1: something to your spirit. It might just be a thought. 272 00:16:35,930 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: It might be like remembering something, maybe something you haven't 273 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: remembered in a long time or thinking of someone. And 274 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,100 Speaker 1: then it's like, oh, Lord, is that someone you want 275 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: me to reach out to today? Does that friend like 276 00:16:46,260 --> 00:16:48,500 Speaker 1: need a text from me? Or, you know, is this 277 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,910 Speaker 1: someone I should be praying for today? Right? It can 278 00:16:50,930 --> 00:16:54,890 Speaker 1: look a variety of different ways. But the most important 279 00:16:54,930 --> 00:16:57,010 Speaker 1: thing that I want you to see in here is 280 00:16:58,050 --> 00:17:00,710 Speaker 1: just that simple, God, I surrender the day to you. 281 00:17:00,910 --> 00:17:03,100 Speaker 1: Show me what you have for me today. Show me 282 00:17:03,170 --> 00:17:06,950 Speaker 1: what you want me to do today? And so here's 283 00:17:06,990 --> 00:17:09,169 Speaker 1: my super practical, as we kind of close up, this 284 00:17:09,190 --> 00:17:10,629 Speaker 1: is going to be a short episode today. As we 285 00:17:10,650 --> 00:17:15,350 Speaker 1: close up today, super practical what to do. What would 286 00:17:15,369 --> 00:17:18,149 Speaker 1: it look like? And some of you, I know, struggle 287 00:17:18,190 --> 00:17:21,060 Speaker 1: with thinking about like your body and how flat your 288 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: stomach is every morning when you wake up. What would 289 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,740 Speaker 1: it look like? Maybe even if you are a body 290 00:17:25,780 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: checker and you put your hand on your stomach, when 291 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: you put your hand on your stomach, that you're saying, God, 292 00:17:30,900 --> 00:17:34,660 Speaker 1: I surrender this body to you. But more so, body 293 00:17:34,700 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 1: checker or not body checker, what would it look like 294 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: to wake up and say, God, today is yours. I 295 00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:43,899 Speaker 1: surrender the day to you. And you're doing that before 296 00:17:43,940 --> 00:17:46,220 Speaker 1: you look in the mirror, before you brush your teeth, 297 00:17:46,340 --> 00:17:50,490 Speaker 1: before you get on your phone, before you are influenced 298 00:17:50,790 --> 00:17:52,890 Speaker 1: in any way, shape, or form, before you've talked to anyone, 299 00:17:52,910 --> 00:17:55,590 Speaker 1: before you've seen your text messages. You are saying, Lord, 300 00:17:55,609 --> 00:17:59,980 Speaker 1: I surrender this day to you. And then if you 301 00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:02,930 Speaker 1: do have a morning quiet time, let me just be 302 00:18:02,970 --> 00:18:05,190 Speaker 1: real with you. It doesn't have to be in the morning. 303 00:18:05,210 --> 00:18:06,790 Speaker 1: It can be in the evening too. That's fine. There's 304 00:18:06,810 --> 00:18:09,590 Speaker 1: no biblical law about that. But if it is in 305 00:18:09,630 --> 00:18:11,670 Speaker 1: the morning, it's a little bit more helpful in terms 306 00:18:11,710 --> 00:18:13,780 Speaker 1: of surrendering the day ahead. But in the evening, you 307 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: could just surrender the next day. That's fine too. We 308 00:18:16,420 --> 00:18:19,940 Speaker 1: just have some, you know, like Dory from Finding Nemo 309 00:18:20,100 --> 00:18:23,940 Speaker 1: and amnesia problems, I think, where we kind of tend 310 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,530 Speaker 1: to forget. So same day is probably better, but Do 311 00:18:27,590 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: what you need to do for the stage in life 312 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,260 Speaker 1: that you're in and the schedule that you keep. But 313 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,859 Speaker 1: when you are doing that daily surrender, it's not, God, 314 00:18:37,940 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: here's my list of 27 things. Help me with one, three, 315 00:18:40,260 --> 00:18:45,010 Speaker 1: and five. It's, God, here's my list. Is this your list? 316 00:18:45,950 --> 00:18:48,530 Speaker 1: What do I need to add to it? What is 317 00:18:48,670 --> 00:18:50,709 Speaker 1: on it that I really don't need to do today? 318 00:18:51,830 --> 00:18:55,890 Speaker 1: What is on this that you don't want me to do? Period. Period. God, 319 00:18:56,070 --> 00:19:00,109 Speaker 1: show me, lead me. And that means, for those of 320 00:19:00,210 --> 00:19:05,580 Speaker 1: my friends that are a little bit controlling, oh, that 321 00:19:05,619 --> 00:19:09,220 Speaker 1: means being a little flexible. That means letting someone else 322 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,820 Speaker 1: lead what my day looks like. That could sound just 323 00:19:12,020 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: plain scary. But that's what it means to follow Jesus 324 00:19:18,340 --> 00:19:24,370 Speaker 1: instead of following myself and my own plans. And then, 325 00:19:25,510 --> 00:19:27,649 Speaker 1: as you go through the day, you have more and 326 00:19:27,690 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: more opportunities to surrender, right? So if the stumbling block 327 00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: for you is scrolling Instagram and you're getting all of 328 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,820 Speaker 1: those ads for the face cream or the miracle supplement 329 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,550 Speaker 1: or the new weight loss plan, like, oh goodness, there 330 00:19:44,570 --> 00:19:47,290 Speaker 1: are just so many of them. I don't know what 331 00:19:47,310 --> 00:19:49,450 Speaker 1: your feed looks like. I'm getting a lot of ads 332 00:19:49,550 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: now for for fake diamonds, which is just funny because 333 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: a friend and I were having a conversation about it 334 00:19:56,020 --> 00:19:57,850 Speaker 1: and I guess Instagram heard me. And so now that's 335 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,690 Speaker 1: what my whole feed is, is fake diamonds, which is 336 00:20:00,750 --> 00:20:03,190 Speaker 1: probably healthier for me to see than some of the 337 00:20:03,270 --> 00:20:05,470 Speaker 1: other things because I'm not really tempted to invest in 338 00:20:05,490 --> 00:20:12,710 Speaker 1: a As you are in that position, what would it 339 00:20:12,730 --> 00:20:15,949 Speaker 1: look like? I mean, goodness, even before you open the 340 00:20:16,030 --> 00:20:22,030 Speaker 1: Instagram app to say, Lord, help me, help me to 341 00:20:22,070 --> 00:20:24,250 Speaker 1: be surrendered to you and help me not to be 342 00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:28,460 Speaker 1: influenced today. I surrender my time to you. I surrender 343 00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: my money to you. God, help me to not be influenced. 344 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: And I don't know, maybe the Holy Spirit will say, 345 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,500 Speaker 1: close the app and go read YouVersion instead, or close 346 00:20:40,540 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: the app and go talk to someone in your family instead. 347 00:20:43,660 --> 00:20:45,659 Speaker 1: That would be kind of cool. And then we have 348 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:49,389 Speaker 1: to be obedient to that, right? But what does it 349 00:20:49,430 --> 00:20:54,750 Speaker 1: look like to surrender that to Him? There's also this 350 00:20:54,850 --> 00:20:59,330 Speaker 1: surrender of just when you are In a situation and 351 00:20:59,369 --> 00:21:03,669 Speaker 1: you feel or hear the Holy Spirit's nudge, surrendering that, 352 00:21:03,770 --> 00:21:06,330 Speaker 1: I mean, goodness, I've been in line in the grocery 353 00:21:06,350 --> 00:21:09,770 Speaker 1: store behind the person who was $ 5 short and stood 354 00:21:09,810 --> 00:21:13,310 Speaker 1: there kind of annoyed for a couple minutes and then 355 00:21:13,390 --> 00:21:15,670 Speaker 1: felt the Holy Spirit say, just, you know, give them 356 00:21:15,690 --> 00:21:19,470 Speaker 1: the $ 5, you know, give the cashier the $ 5. And 357 00:21:19,580 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: not in a haughty, like, I want to expedite this 358 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: line so I can get out of here kind of way, 359 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,750 Speaker 1: just take the five bucks. but from a generous, like 360 00:21:27,790 --> 00:21:30,229 Speaker 1: this person needs help. I want you, Heather, to stop 361 00:21:30,270 --> 00:21:32,210 Speaker 1: being in such a hurry. And I want you to 362 00:21:32,330 --> 00:21:38,530 Speaker 1: actually see people, not just yourself and the people you know, 363 00:21:38,550 --> 00:21:41,540 Speaker 1: and stay on your own schedule. I want you to 364 00:21:41,690 --> 00:21:44,950 Speaker 1: see others. I want you to see the needy. I 365 00:21:44,990 --> 00:21:48,160 Speaker 1: want you to see where I might want to use 366 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: you to be a blessing to someone else. And that 367 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,869 Speaker 1: takes slowing down, and surrendering, doesn't it? So there you 368 00:21:56,910 --> 00:22:01,350 Speaker 1: have it, friend. Morning prayer of surrender. Lord, today is yours. 369 00:22:01,450 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: I surrender. What do you have for me today? Every 370 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: time you make a decision, God, is this what you 371 00:22:06,220 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: want me to do? God, is this what you have 372 00:22:09,980 --> 00:22:13,050 Speaker 1: for me? And that's a different prayer than what will 373 00:22:13,109 --> 00:22:18,210 Speaker 1: mom say? What will people think? Right. And some of you, 374 00:22:18,270 --> 00:22:19,950 Speaker 1: I mean, if you've got work to do in that arena, 375 00:22:20,060 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: you would be just like most of my other clients 376 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: who have a hard time telling between the voice of 377 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: mom and the voice of God. But you're not alone 378 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: in that. I think that goes with this whole set 379 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,910 Speaker 1: of body image food issues. So hear me. We get 380 00:22:35,970 --> 00:22:37,969 Speaker 1: it here. We get it. And that's why we've got 381 00:22:38,030 --> 00:22:41,570 Speaker 1: coaching available for you if that's where you're at. But 382 00:22:41,630 --> 00:22:45,780 Speaker 1: what will other people think? becomes not the reason why 383 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: you make a decision. It's what does God want me 384 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,619 Speaker 1: to do? And then I can act in faith. I 385 00:22:50,660 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: can respond to that confidently without fear because I know 386 00:22:54,740 --> 00:22:56,609 Speaker 1: it's what he wants me to do. I mean, it 387 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,139 Speaker 1: might be a scary thing he's asked you to do. 388 00:22:58,180 --> 00:23:00,990 Speaker 1: You might still feel some like, ah, I'm a little 389 00:23:01,030 --> 00:23:03,669 Speaker 1: anxious about that. I'm not saying with no fear in 390 00:23:03,710 --> 00:23:07,310 Speaker 1: that way, but you can be confident in his calling. 391 00:23:08,450 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: And then If you start doing great with this, you 392 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,550 Speaker 1: could do an evening review. I've got a friend that 393 00:23:13,570 --> 00:23:16,190 Speaker 1: does an evening review while she brushes her teeth. At 394 00:23:16,210 --> 00:23:17,690 Speaker 1: the end of the day, she brushes her teeth. She says, 395 00:23:17,730 --> 00:23:19,250 Speaker 1: how did I do? God asked me to surrender this 396 00:23:19,270 --> 00:23:21,030 Speaker 1: and this and this. How did I do? Did I 397 00:23:21,090 --> 00:23:25,300 Speaker 1: follow him? Did I resist? It's a beautiful thing to 398 00:23:25,420 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: follow up with. Surrender, again, friend, isn't just one big yes. 399 00:23:30,660 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: It's not a one-time yes. It's a thousand small acts 400 00:23:35,980 --> 00:23:41,350 Speaker 1: of surrender. And every time you take just even a 401 00:23:41,510 --> 00:23:44,810 Speaker 1: baby step of surrender, where you're like, okay, Jesus told 402 00:23:44,850 --> 00:23:47,649 Speaker 1: me this. Maybe it's something super simple. Jesus told me 403 00:23:47,780 --> 00:23:50,500 Speaker 1: not to buy that thing I saw on Instagram. And 404 00:23:50,540 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't buy that thing I saw on Instagram. 405 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: I was obedient. Every time you do that, it grows 406 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,940 Speaker 1: your faith. You are learning to trust God more. He 407 00:24:02,060 --> 00:24:05,660 Speaker 1: is showing you that he is so good and so 408 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:11,070 Speaker 1: able to lead you in every area of life. God's 409 00:24:11,140 --> 00:24:17,610 Speaker 1: not just an expert in creation and big things. He 410 00:24:17,730 --> 00:24:21,050 Speaker 1: is actually capable of leading you in every area of life. 411 00:24:21,109 --> 00:24:23,550 Speaker 1: It reminds me of a story a man at our 412 00:24:23,590 --> 00:24:29,570 Speaker 1: church shared. He ran a multi-million dollar construction company. And 413 00:24:29,770 --> 00:24:32,619 Speaker 1: he became a Christian and got involved with a ministry 414 00:24:32,630 --> 00:24:35,070 Speaker 1: at church. And the ministry said, hey, we need you. 415 00:24:35,780 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: Can you come every Monday morning at 8 a.m.? We 416 00:24:38,940 --> 00:24:41,719 Speaker 1: need you to be part of this ministry. And he 417 00:24:41,820 --> 00:24:45,060 Speaker 1: left and he's like saying to himself, no way. Like 418 00:24:45,140 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 1: Monday 8 a.m., that's when we have our big like 419 00:24:47,420 --> 00:24:50,430 Speaker 1: construction meeting for the week. Like I have to be there. 420 00:24:50,470 --> 00:24:53,149 Speaker 1: I couldn't miss that meeting. Like our company has a 421 00:24:53,190 --> 00:24:56,230 Speaker 1: lot of big important things going. going on. Like I'll 422 00:24:56,270 --> 00:24:58,629 Speaker 1: volunteer for another ministry, but I can't be part of 423 00:24:58,690 --> 00:25:00,970 Speaker 1: a ministry that meets then. I've got a conflict then. 424 00:25:02,010 --> 00:25:06,979 Speaker 1: And he very clearly heard the Holy Spirit say, his 425 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,220 Speaker 1: name is Joe. Joe, do you think I don't know 426 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,460 Speaker 1: how to run a construction company? Do you think I'm 427 00:25:13,540 --> 00:25:17,010 Speaker 1: not able to run a construction company? And at that 428 00:25:17,070 --> 00:25:20,630 Speaker 1: moment he decided, nope, I guess I'm to do this ministry, 429 00:25:20,650 --> 00:25:23,910 Speaker 1: I will trust you, Lord. And God continued to bless 430 00:25:23,970 --> 00:25:30,350 Speaker 1: his business because he made that step of obedience. He 431 00:25:30,630 --> 00:25:32,510 Speaker 1: did what Jesus asked him to do, even though it 432 00:25:32,530 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 1: seemed like a hard, unusual thing, he did it. And 433 00:25:36,450 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: I love that story because every time I think, well, 434 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,740 Speaker 1: I'll just take care of this or I'm going to 435 00:25:40,780 --> 00:25:43,899 Speaker 1: do this. Like, do you think God doesn't know how 436 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,429 Speaker 1: to help you take care of your body? Do you 437 00:25:47,470 --> 00:25:51,020 Speaker 1: think God doesn't know how to do your job at work? 438 00:25:51,580 --> 00:25:53,740 Speaker 1: Do you think God doesn't know how to help you 439 00:25:53,900 --> 00:25:58,180 Speaker 1: raise your kids or in your marriage? Friends, you have 440 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: access to the God of the universe. He knows more 441 00:26:02,380 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: about your body than any doctor and a million Instagram influencers, 442 00:26:06,980 --> 00:26:10,060 Speaker 1: and you can consult him. Why don't we do that more? 443 00:26:10,859 --> 00:26:14,710 Speaker 1: Why don't we surrender? to him daily. That's my encouragement 444 00:26:14,730 --> 00:26:16,410 Speaker 1: for you today. I'm so glad you listened.
