Are you still trying to be the CEO of a company that’s going bankrupt?
We love the idea of "surrender" until it actually costs us our seat at the head of the table. In Step 3, we aren't just looking for a co-pilot to help us navigate the mess we created; we are making a radical decision to turn our entire will and our lives over to the care of God. The reason you’re so exhausted isn’t just life hitting you hard—it’s the unsustainable energy required to keep up the "artificial life" where you pretend to have everything under control. True courage is admitting that your best thinking led you to a dead end, and that real freedom only begins when you finally vacate the driver's seat.
You can’t be filled with a Power that restores until you are first emptied of the ego that destroyed you. It’s time to stop white-knuckling the steering wheel and start trusting the Navigator.
What is the one thing you are still stubbornly holding onto because you’re terrified of what happens if you actually let go?
