Surrender Begins Within


“Surrender is not a fall, it is a return to where you already are.”

Surrender is not silence, nor is it defeat.
It is a quiet remembering that everything sacred begins inside.
When the mind loosens its grip, the body speaks with a pulse, a breath, a whisper that says, you can trust me.

Begin simply.
Drink a glass of water before the day demands anything of you.
Add a pinch of sea salt for the minerals your tears are made of.
Let each swallow be gratitude for the life that moves through you without command.

Surrender is an inward bow, not to something outside of you, but to the divine pulse within.
It asks for respect, not resistance.
It teaches that every act of care is an act of prayer.

-Kerri-Elizabeth-
Tomorrow, the river will begin to move and you’ll feel what surrender sets free.

How do you perceive Surrender? I have been spending some personal time on this lately and I have some new perceptions and insights that have so divinely been dropped within, I would love to hear your thoughts on this subject as well.

  1. I love this, Kerri. Surrender is not defeat and right away I thought about a song I have named “retreat.” It’s not about giving up and retreating – it’s about withdrawing into the serenity of a sanctuary! I will look forward to hearing more of your insights! 😘😘😘
