In the quiet moments of our lives—between prayers whispered in faith and tears shed in uncertainty—we come to understand a sacred truth: God is near. He sees us, knows us, and invites us to trust Him. And it is in that trust, that full-hearted surrender, that miracles begin to unfold.
Letting Go to Let God Work
Surrender is not weakness—it is strength in its purest form. It is saying, “Thy will be done,” even when the road ahead is unclear. It is opening our hearts to the Savior, believing He can make more of our lives than we could ever make on our own.
When we surrender to God, we’re not losing control—we’re handing it over to a loving Father who understands the bigger plan. By trusting Him with our lives, fears, hopes, and future, we open the door for miracles to take place.
As Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf taught: “Sometimes, we need to let go of the world’s expectations and say yes to God’s invitations. When we trust in His timing and ways, He leads us to places far greater than we could imagine.”

The Nature of Miracles
Miracles are not always loud or dramatic. More often, they come in the form of quiet peace during heartache, unexpected direction in confusion, or the still, small voice that says, “You’re not alone.” They remind us that God is working—always.
In moments of surrender, we align our hearts with heaven. We begin to see God’s hand in the ordinary. We recognize His fingerprints in our story. A prayer answered. A burden lifted. A scripture speaking directly to our heart. These are not coincidences. They are God’s loving responses to a trusting soul.
President Russell M. Nelson reminds us: “The Lord loves effort, because effort brings rewards that can’t come without it. Even when we feel small or unsure, miracles happen when we let God prevail in our lives.”

Trusting God in the Everyday
Sometimes surrender looks like waiting with faith. Other times, it means taking one brave step forward when we don’t have all the answers. For many, it means releasing control and choosing to believe that God’s plan is greater than our own.
Even in the small things—a decision about your family, your work, or your next step—God is there. And He is faithful. Each act of surrender is an invitation for Him to do what only He can do: bring peace, purpose, and power to our lives.
Anchored in Christ
As we surrender to God, we become anchored in His love. We remember that we are never forgotten and never forsaken. In Christ, we find the strength to keep going, the courage to trust again, and the hope that all things—no matter how broken—can be made whole.
The Savior doesn’t ask us to have it all figured out. He asks us to come—to lay our burdens at His feet and to trust that He will carry us. And He will. Because when we surrender, He steps in. And when He steps in, miracles follow.
