Let All Bondage Go: The Freedom Found in Surrender

By Jane “Goldie” Winn, MSS

 

We All Carry Something

Bondage isn’t always obvious. Sometimes it looks like worry that never seems to end, resentment that lingers, habits we can’t seem to break, or the constant pressure to be in control. These burdens can quietly drain our peace and keep us from living with joy and purpose.

Surrender invites us to stop carrying what was never ours to bear alone. Rather than struggling to manage every outcome, we can choose to release our worries, fears, and disappointments to God one step at a time. It’s a simple yet powerful shift—from striving to trusting.

Small Steps Toward Freedom

Freedom is often a journey, not a single moment. As we learn to let go of what weighs us down, we make room for God’s peace to fill our hearts. That doesn’t mean life’s challenges disappear, but it does mean we no longer have to face them in our own strength.

Surrender can look different each day. It may mean forgiving someone who hurt us, releasing regret over the past, trusting God with an uncertain future, or simply choosing peace over anxiety. Each act of surrender helps loosen the grip of whatever has been holding us back.

The Bible reminds us in 2 Corinthians 3:17, “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” God’s desire is not for us to live burdened but to experience the peace that comes from trusting Him.

Choosing Freedom Every Day

Living with an open heart before God is a daily choice. Instead of allowing fear or discouragement to guide us, we can choose hope, trust, and faith. Over time, those choices shape a life marked by greater peace and freedom.

Whatever burden you’re carrying today, remember that you don’t have to carry it forever. As you surrender it to God, He is faithful to provide strength, wisdom, and the grace you need for each new day.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness

by | Goldie's Nuggets

As we start the new year, it is very important we don’t carry any baggage from 2021 to 2022! It’s time to reset and have a fresh start.

Is there someone in your life you haven’t been able to forgive?

If so, now is the time to ask the Lord to show you how to truly let go and release the person (or persons) into His loving care.

We only hold ourselves hostage when we refuse to forgive. It isn’t that we forget the hurt we experienced, but when we forgive, we remember the offense in a “healing way!” It then allows us to love more freely and embrace the present with a new perspective.

I love how Nathan the prophet lovingly confronted King David about his sin with Bathsheba. Thankfully, David fully repented and poured his heart into the writing of Psalm 51. He was totally forgiven, and in the New Testament, he was referred to as “the man after God’s own heart.”

I leave you with this exhortation from Scripture: “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.”  (Ephesians 4:32) NIV
