Tethered Surrender:
Trusting God Despite Our Circumstances


We often go through life with expectations, believing we know what we want and how God will provide it, but when things don't go as planned and God seems silent, we're tempted to give up—on our desires, on God, and even take control ourselves. Yet despite the temptation, we know deep down that Jesus alone fulfills our deepest longings and remains worthy of our trust through every high and low.
