The Grace In Surrender

Surrender is not the ending we were taught to fear.

Surrender is actually the soft unthreading of the fight that once kept us alive.

Surrender is just the body whispering to please rest now.

Surrender is grace arriving right on time.

And, not with triumph but with open hands.

To surrender is to remember that strength has many faces,

and sometimes it can look like stillness.

Surrender is choosing peace over proving,

it is trusting that what’s meant for you does not need to be wrestled for.

So, let the wind carry what no longer fits in your palms.

Let the light touch what you used to hide.
