[Faith-talk] a sermon that inspired me!

[Alan Wheeler]

There's power in that surrender.  I learned that recently thanks in part to a lesson on a radio ministry I like.  We see surrender as a sign of weakness, but when we're surrendering to Jesus...to God Himself...there is actually power in that surrender, and we find our faith is strengthened.

   He has made clear to you, O man, what is good; and what is desired from you by the Lord; only doing what is 
 right, and loving mercy, and walking without pride before your God. Micah 6:8
