Surrender and Trust

Both Christianity and Buddhism invite us to release control and trust in a higher power. Jesus prayed, “Not my will, but yours be done,” while the Buddha taught non-attachment to outcomes.In surrender, we find freedom. We don’t passively give up; instead, we open ourselves to divine guidance, or the natural unfolding of life.

Motivation for today: When you feel anxious, pause, and say a simple prayer or mantra, trusting that you are held.
