Surrender in the stages study course is the point at which we try and try and try and nothing we "do" seems to work for us in our recovery. Maybe we get so impatient, so fed up, so frustrated that we just want to give up and/or let go. OR perhaps we have been in an addictive pattern and life has gotten so unmanageable that we don't know what to do.
The Surrender Point is a time in our lives when we get sick and tired of letting our ego and fears run the show; we don't know what to do and we just want to give up.
The Surrender Point isn't just a one-time thing; we can have many Surrender Point moments in a year even. But, we believe there is recovery in Surrender Point moments.
Our recovery is this...
Our fears, insecurities and ego have small minded, unaligned agendas deeply hidden within our child. That constantly influence our lives.
Unaligned? Yes, we cannot think two thoughts at once. We cannot simultaneously think a thought of loving-kindness and a thought of fear. And as a wise man once said, "Loving kindness is what we're born with, fear is what we learn here."
So flow with us on this thought for a moment. When we let thoughts of fear dominate our lives, we step out of Loving kindness and are no longer in alignment with our perfect child within. So, like a drop of water separated from the ocean, we separate unknowingly from the Loving kindness that sustains us. As a result, our lives, our passion and our hearts begin to become even more consumed with fear. This cycle continues until we hit a Surrender Point. We hit a Surrender Point because the pain of continuing in our fearful habit is finally worse than the pain of changing, facing ourselves and realigning with our child within.
When we reach a Surrender Point, it should be celebrated. It means that we have finally let go of a lower and unaligned way of living and given in to hearing our intuitive voice within. The wisdom and value in the Surrender Point is that we SURRENDER our fear .
We step away from our past habits and addictions that have distracted ourselves from ourselves and instead decide to face our child within. Not with fear, but with compassion.
Surrender Points are painful in the moment, but in the long run we will see them as some of the greatest moments of our lives.
Are there any habits or addictions that you have that you want to give up?
How much longer do you want to subtly suffer knowing that you are participating in an unhealthy and unloving habit?
How much more pain do you want to endure before you give it up?
We are urging ourselves to take a deep look at our lives and see what unhealthy and unloving habits, addictions and thoughts we can begin to understand in the context of the child withins unfulfilled needs. Not because it's so painful, but because we know that in doing so, we will liberate ourselves to live in harmony with our child within.
