Biblical Answer

The Crisis of the Will

A deep crisis is a crisis of the will. It is a moment of recklessness where one deliberately and earnestly abandons everything. This can be a moment of desperation, but it will amount to nothing if it is not a genuine surrender of one's will to God. The will is the deepest part of a person, the part that decides what is most important and what one is willing to risk or sacrifice for. When we face a crisis, it is our will that is tested. We may try to hold on to our possessions, our business, or our family, but if we do not surrender our will to God, we will never truly find peace or relief.

The Importance of Surrender

Surrender is not just about giving up something external, but about giving up our own desires and will. It is about trusting God to provide for us and to guide us through difficult times. When we surrender our will to God, we open ourselves up to His guidance and provision. We begin to see that our true security lies not in our possessions or our business, but in God Himself. We start to trust that He will provide for us, even when we do not understand how. This surrender is not a one-time event, but a daily choice that we must make. It is a choice to trust God and to follow His lead, even when it is difficult or uncomfortable.

Finding True Security

True security is not found in our possessions or our business, but in God Himself. When we surrender our will to Him, we begin to see that He is our true security. We start to trust that He will provide for us, even when we do not understand how. This trust is not based on our own strength or ability, but on God's character and promises. We can trust that He will never leave us or forsake us, and that He will always be with us. This trust gives us the courage to face our crises head-on, knowing that God is with us and that He will guide us through. When we trust in God, we find true security, not just in our external circumstances, but in our hearts and souls.
