Submitting to God is a willing act of accepting the Authority of God. But a surrendered life in Christ means that we must first be willing to let go, before we can grasp something else. We must let go of sinful behavior with all its desires and allure in order to grasp wisdom, holiness, and new life through Christ. We must let go of self and with it pride, arrogance and seeking after our own interests, that we may instead grasp humility, modesty, and total obedience to the Lord. For if we’re unwilling to let go…we’ll never be able to grasp the things God has for us.
