Submit Yourself to God

“My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him.” — Psalm 62:5 (NKJV)

Inspiration

Submission to God isn’t about weakness — it’s about trust. It’s choosing to quiet your striving and allow His will to lead your life. In a world that tells us to take control, Scripture invites us to release control. David reminds his soul to “wait silently” — not anxiously, not restlessly — but with full confidence that God’s timing and plans are perfect.

True peace comes when we stop wrestling with what we cannot change and rest in the One who never changes. Submission means believing that even when life feels delayed, God is never late. It’s acknowledging that His wisdom surpasses ours and His ways are always for our good.

When you yield to God, you’re not giving up — you’re aligning yourself with divine strength. In surrender, you’ll find freedom. In waiting, you’ll discover hope. And in trusting, you’ll experience His unshakable peace.

Reflection
Am I truly resting in God’s plan, or am I trying to force my own? How can I practice quiet trust in His timing today?

Prayer
Lord, teach me to submit fully to You. Help me to trust Your plan even when I can’t see the outcome. Quiet my heart and remind me that my hope and expectation come from You alone. Amen.
