Have you been running? Running from your purpose, from His calling, from the very thing that might set your soul free? I see you, I’ve been there too – feet aching from the endless sprint away from what my heart knows to be true.

But today, let’s talk about what happens when we finally stop running.

Standing at the Edge

Picture yourself at the edge of a cliff. Your toes curl over its weathered rim, your heart pounds against your chest, and everything within you screams to step back, to retreat to what’s familiar. The vast unknown stretches before you like an endless sea of possibilities – both thrilling and terrifying.

This cliff edge? It’s your surrender point.

It’s that sacred space where your plans meet God’s purpose. Where your control meets His sovereignty. Where your fear meets His perfect love.

The Beautiful Surrender

Here’s the truth that changed everything for me: surrender isn’t about losing – it’s about gaining everything you never knew you needed. When we finally exhaust ourselves from running, when our own plans have led us to dead ends, when we’ve tried everything in our own strength… that’s when His grace meets us most powerfully.

Remember, that cliff edge isn’t meant to be your breaking point. It’s your breakthrough point.

Finding Strength in His Promises

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

This isn’t just a verse to stitch on pillows – it’s a battle cry for every woman standing at her own cliff edge. Your uncertainty meets His unwavering certainty. Your weakness meets His strength. Your fear meets His perfect peace.

You’re not alone in this moment of surrender. The God of the universe stands with you, His hand extended, inviting you to trust Him with your next step.

The Leap of Faith

When you finally stop running, when you surrender to His plan, something beautiful happens. That cliff edge transforms from a place of fear to a launching pad of faith. The unknown before you becomes holy ground, sanctified by your trust in His promises.

You don’t need to see the whole staircase, dear one. You just need to take the first step.

Your Invitation

Today, I’m inviting you to stop running. To turn around and face what God has been calling you toward all along. Feel your feet planted firmly on that cliff edge, take a deep breath, and remember:

– You are not alone

– His strength is made perfect in your weakness

– Your surrender is the beginning of His greatest work in you

The edge of surrender might feel like the scariest place you’ve ever stood, but it’s also the most transformative. It’s where your story truly begins to unfold in His perfect plan.

Are you ready to stop running? Are you ready to surrender?

Take His hand. Trust His heart. And take that leap of faith.

Your greatest adventure awaits on the other side of surrender.
