SURRENDER is not giving up as when an army submits to the other side. Surrender means letting our Higher Self (called the Universal Force/Flow by Singer) take control of our life. For that to happen, we have to let go the voice of ego ( voice of resistance) chattering in our mind wanting to control events.

Thomas Merton Can anyone of you by worrying...
