Surrender: A playlist for Lent
Almost every year that I have been a believer I have given something up for Lent. But this Lent I wanted to view that differently. Why not actively give up every weight and sin that holds me down in this race Iām running for Christ? Just like Hebrews 12 states. Truly allowing Him to make me fully aware of what He gave up for me and fully encouraged to finish the race He has called me and you to. By His strength, of course!
Hebrews 12:1-2
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
With this playlist I hope we are able to come to Jesus with our burdens and issues that prevent us from living our lives in complete surrender to Him and prevent us from seeing him as most holy and most good. Lord, I pray that we are able to see You as the most glorious Savior and praise You for the rest of our lives for the work You did on the cross. Allow this season of Lent/the days leading up to Easter as a reminder of how far You have brought us and renew the joy of our salvation. Lord, I pray that we are no longer moved by what we see or by our fears but instead truly transformed by who You are.
Enjoy this playlist, let me know what you think, and share it with a friend! The playlist is on Apple Music and Spotify!
