“A second barrier to total surrender is our pride. We don’t want to admit that we’re just creatures and not in charge of everything.

Life is a struggle, but what most people don’t realize is that our struggle, like Jacob’s, is really a struggle with God! We want to be God, and there’s no way we are going to win that struggle.”
