The power to change begins with new knowledge, awareness, and wisdom, but real transformation requires recognizing our thoughts, feelings, actions, and being as they truly are. Change cannot fully take place until we acknowledge how our choices and habits affect our lives and the lives of others.
Surrender is essential: letting go of self-reliance, regrets, and past burdens so that Jesus can work in us. True change involves emptying our hands and inviting Christ into every part of our life—where we are, as we are, in the present moment—trusting Him to guide and transform us.
