Reflect
Trust in the slow work of God. If we try to control our lives, we will never be at peace. Wait with openness and unclench your fists. Without grasping, receive fully what God has for you.
Pray
Dear God, your incarnate life on earth is a continual openness
to the will of the Father. Teach me to receive and be open,
rather than clenching tightly to what I want.
May I learn surrender from you, knowing that deep surrender brings deeper freedom.
Amen.
Act
Are there things or people in my life to whom I am tightly clinging? Name them and ask Jesus to help you surrender with open hands, not clenched fists.
