Surrender Quotes

“What is life? Life is living in this moment, experiencing and experimenting but experience isn’t life. Life is reflecting and meditating but reflection isn’t life. Life is helping and guiding but philanthropy isn’t life. Life is eating and drinking but food isn’t life. Life is reading and dancing but art isn’t life. Life is kissing and pleasuring but sex isn’t life. Life is winning and losing but competition isn’t life. Life is loving and caring but love isn’t life. Life is birthing and nurturing but children aren’t life. Life is letting go and surrendering but death isn’t life. Life is all these things but all these things aren’t life. Life is always more.”

“This is a day of celebration! Today, we are divorcing the past and marrying the present. Dance, and you will find God in every room. Today, we are divorcing resentment and marrying forgiveness. Sing, and God will find you in every tune. Today, we are divorcing indifference and marrying love. Drink, and play that tambourine against your thighs. We have so much celebrating to do!”

“O, weary angels, don’t look at me with those eyes. If that is your state then what of our cries? What can I tell you of goodness that you don’t already know? What can I tell you of faith, of hope and love that you yourselves bestow? O, angels, don’t pluck another feather, this isn’t the sky, it’s just the weather. Please, angels, try. We are one all together. Look up and listen, I’ll say it once and then put down my pen: We are sorry for our ignorance and even though we are worldly, it might happen again. We are sorry for your weariness and even though you aren’t worldly, we are no more than human.”

“And then I yet again find myself standing before the very thing that has relentlessly pummeled me, staring through a bloodied brow realizing that my most heroic efforts have utterly failed to bring this thing to an ‘end.’ And at those most hopeless of moments where I stand before a monster I cannot slay, it would behoove me to finally accept the reality that the ‘beginning of the end’ is only possible when I ‘begin’ to surrender that thing to God and ‘end’ my feeble attempts to slay it on my own.”

“صخبُ الصمت الصمت لغة الحاضر. صوت الأنين يمزّق الجرح .. صوت الانين يوقظ باقي الأنداب.. في الجمود عزاؤنا. الضحكة الكاذبة تحرق بضوضائها بقايا قلب أكلته النار.. الدمعة التي تنام في الأحداق وتتدحرج لا تنقذنا من الدمار.. الصمت لغة من بات ألمه من دون ذكرى.. الجمود قناع من فقد عينه وفمه.. في آخر الليلة الماطرة، مركب يغرق.. في آخر السالسا، رمح في الخاصرة.. في بداية العشق، اظافرحمراء في العنق.. بعد آخر نقطة حمراء، تنتبه أنك خسرت اصابعك العشرة.. ناسك يمشي طريق العودة الى ذاته.. ناسك مقتول ويرفض ان يلجأ الى الثأر.. ناسك يردد لنفسه: " الصمت مقبرة الضعف " " الجمود مقبرة الخذلان " أنا الناسك الذي فقد أصابعه العشرة.. أنا المتصوف في حبك أعتنق الصمت.. الصمت مقبرة آلام الحاضر.. الصمت مقبرة ذكريات الماضي.. الصمت ديانتي. ويا ليتني أصمت وتكف شفاهي عن قول " بلى "..”

“I don’t know why we fight. It takes much too effort to stay mad at you. To dodge your skin in the hallway and leave the kitchen without bringing you a treat. It takes much too effort to stare at the sink so my eyes don’t smile at you in the mirror. It takes much too effort to look away as we undress and lie apart in the now bigger bed. It takes much too effort to stiffen my body because sleepy limbs forget fights and pride is always lost in dreams. It takes much too effort to awaken every hour to make sure we are islands with a gulf of white sheets separating us. I dread the light peeking through the parted curtains and empathise with your groans — I didn’t get any sleep either. I really don’t know why we fight. It takes much too effort to stay mad at one another when it’s so easy for us to love.”

“Darkness commands an inordinate amount of attention from a person who is unprepared and unprotected. Attention to darkness produces doubt. When a person is distracted and weakened by struggles, doubt whispers a message logically urging surrender; and soon, that person’s focus is on his own discomfort, his fear and anger, regret and resentment.”

“They tell us the only way to move on is to forget. “Forgive,” they say. Realise that you deserve better. That maybe they deserve better. You can't fight fire with fire. Extinguish it once and for all. "Do not look back," they say. They don't tell you that only one thing is needed. Only one: love. When you are filled to the brim with love, you only emanate love. You become lover and love itself. Only then will you love even the very people you wish to hate.”

“Our burdens sometimes seem unbearable. Rarely do we see that each burden, small or large, is an invitation to turn to the Savior. But each burden is precisely that: an invitation to seek Christ’s help. He will—if we will permit it—exchange burdens with us. “My burden,” He promises, “is light.” If we dare to make the exchange, we slowly discover that His burden isn’t heavy. As we surrender the oppressions and wrongs done to us, our flaws, weaknesses, sins, sorrows, and failures to this Willing and Able Bearer of Burdens, we discover that He is also the Great Transformer. Though His atonement, Jesus Christ transforms our heaviest burdens into our greatest blessings. He re-makes us into women and men who are not undone by burdens. He re-makes us into men and women who become capable of carrying our burdens without complaint; even cheerfully. Then, in the moment when His light illuminates what He has done for us, He gently invites us to go and do likewise: to take on the burdens of others and to tell them of the One Whose Burdens are Light; of the One Whose Light Reveals Truth.”

“When you are blessed with a beautiful light, don’t ask where it comes from or why it comes, how it comes, when it will end! Just feel the light, live the light, unite with the light! All your questions will be answered when you surrender to the thing happening to you because at that case you become that very thing happening to you, you become the light itself!”

“When we are dealt a difficult hand of cards and find ourselves hitting a wall after having tried every tool in the tool chest, sometimes all we can do is sit in the pain and surrender. It’s in the surrender that we may just meet a peace that transcends our understanding.”

“Forgiveness is a transformative act because it asks you to be a more empathetic and compassionate person, thereby making you better than the person you were when you were first hurt.”

“There has been a good deal of comment — some of it quite outlandish — about what our postwar requirements might be in Iraq. Some of the higher end predictions we have been hearing recently, such as the notion that it will take several hundred thousand U.S. troops to provide stability in post- Iraq, are wildly off the mark. It is hard to conceive that it would take more forces to provide stability in post-Saddam Iraq than it would take to conduct the war itself and to secure the surrender of Saddam's security forces and his army — hard to imagine.”

“Even as we seek to be meek and to avoid contention, we must not compromise or dilute our commitment to the truths we understand. We must not surrender our positions or our values. The gospel of Jesus Christ and the covenants we have made inevitably cast us as combatants in the eternal contest between truth and error. there is no middle ground in that contest.”

“Death is not something to be feared, but rather anticipated. Of course, we are not to precipitate it ourselves, as suicide is surrender and defeat of the worst kind. But if each of us can have the patience to wait and die in God's time, when His time has come for us, that's the day we're going to be the most thankful. We're going to arrive in our heavenly home and see that it was really worth it all!”
