Building Resilience in a Chaotic World
Series: Building Resilience in a Chaotic World
Summary
Surrender to God imparts resilience (Matthew 26:36-39). We daily navigate the chaos and uncertainty of the world around us, leaving many hopeless, worried, and anxious. Jesus experienced a similar struggle, saying to some of His disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane that His soul was overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Despite this mental and emotional distress, Jesus still had the resilience and resolve to go to the cross. He had the hope necessary that enabled Him to face the grave. That hope and resilience came through His surrender to God. In His agony, Jesus modeled to us surrender by embracing God’s will over His own. When we embrace Easter as Jesus embraced Easter – giving up control and surrendering to God fully – God imparts resilience, strength, hope, peace, and joy to us.
