PRAYER OF SURRENDER




Why get agitated?
Let Me take care of all your business.
I shall be the one who will think about them.
I am waiting for nothing else than your surrender to Me,
and then you do not have to worry anymore about anything.
Say farewell to all fears and discouragement.
You demonstrate that you do not trust Me.
On the contrary, you must rely blindly on Me.


To surrender means to turn all your thoughts away from troubles;
to turn them away from difficulties you encounter
and from all your problems.
Leave everything in My hands saying,
"Lord, Thy will be done. Thou think of it."
That is to say, "Lord, I thank You for
You have taken everything in Your hands
and You will resolve this for my highest good."


Remember that thinking of the consequences of a thing
is contrary to surrender.
That is to say when you worry
that a situation had not had the desired outcome,
you thus demonstrate
that you do not believe in My Love for you.
You will prove that you do not consider your life
to be under My control
and that nothing escapes Me.


Never think : How is this to end?...
What is going to happen?
If you give in to temptation,
you demonstrate that you do not trust Me.
You want Me to deal with it...
Yes or no?
Then you must stop being anxious about it!
I shall guide you only if you completely surrender to Me,
and when I must lead you into a different path
than the one that you expect,
I carry you in My arms.


What seriously upset you is your reasoning,
your worrying, your obsession,
your will to provide for yourselves at any price.
I can do so many things when the being,
as much in his material necessities as in his spiritual ones,
turns to Me saying, "You thin of it."
Then he closes his eyes and rests quietly.
You will receive a lot,
but only when your prayer will rely fully upon Me.


You pray to Me when in pain so that I intervene,
but in the way you desire it.
You do not rely on Me
but you want Me to adjust to your requests.
Don't behave like sick ones who ask for a treatment from the doctor,
all the time suggesting it to him.
Do not do that; but rather,
even in sad circumstances say,
"Lord, I praise and thank You for this problem,
for this necessity.
I pray You to arrange things as You please
for this terrestrial, temporal life -
You know very well what is best for Me."


Sometimes, you feel that disasters increase
instead of diminish.
Do not get agitated.
Close your eyes and tell me with faith,
"Thy will be done. You think of it."
And when you speak thus,
I accomplish a miracle when necessary.
I only think of it when you trust Me totally.
I always think of you,
but I can only help you completely
when you rely fully on Me.



~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~

(As written on the wall near the entrance to Western Canteen at Prashanti Nilayam)

O LORD, TAKE MY LOVE

O Lord, take my love, and let it flow in fullness of devotion to Thee;
O Lord, take my hands, and let them work incessantly for Thee;
O Lord, take my soul, and let it be merged in One with Thee;
O Lord, take my mind and thoughts, and let them be in tune with Thee;
O Lord, take my everything, and let me be an instrument to work for Thee.
