Learning to Let Go

Two of the greatest lessons on the spiritual path that have challenged so many of us are to trust ourselves and to surrender.

David and Tim Whild recently ran a workshop together titled Recognise Your Power where we delved into how we can learn to trust our intuitive gifts to bring more clarity into our lives.

But through that discussion, we felt it was important to dedicate some time to what is really the second half of the same lesson, Surrender.

What does it mean to surrender, and why would we even want to?

There are many reasons, which we will explore in much greater depth during the workshop, but the most common reason is about relinquishing control.

As human beings, we have a very limited perspective. We can only see what is right in front of us.

This is why it is so important to develop our intuitive senses, as they allow us to peek into the unseen to help guide us on the path of our highest good.

But even then, we usually only receive a direction. We rarely see the full picture.

And yet it is our way to try and know all the facts. We do this to try and maintain control of our lives. This is a perfectly natural and sensible safety mechanism. If we know what is coming, we are able to prepare for it.

Spirit, on the other hand, is infinite. It is all knowing. It is all seeing.

Our Guides, Angels, the universe, God, and Source itself are better able to see the best path for us in a way that we simply can’t.

So if we want to live our best life, the way to do it is to welcome their loving guidance into our lives. 

The challenge comes because we are wired to want to know the answers. And to allow ourselves to be led by another is to relinquish control.

This is where surrender happens.

But the act of actually surrendering to Spirit is complicated by the fact that we can’t detect them with our physical senses. 

We are relinquishing control of our lives based on our intuitive senses.

This takes a lot of faith.

And so the act of surrendering by its very nature is incredibly challenging.

But when we do, we open to Divine Will, the guiding force behind the divine plan of all creation, which desires only the greatest good of all.

And this changes everything. 

Living in alignment with Divine Will allows us to live in peace, in joy, in abundance, because we no longer need to worry about all life’s problems. We simply know that we will be guided and provided with all that we need.

We become free. We become sovereign.

This workshop will be dedicated to understanding this process, to developing faith, and ultimately relinquishing the fear that holds us back from true surrender.
