Let me quote from the Bible, particularly Romans 6:13 "Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God."
This is very interesting. It asks us to yield to the wishes of God. When we understand surrender, we feel like a loser. It need not be that way. When we surrender to God completely, then in fast we are on the winning side. I understand that surrendering to God means being HIS slave.
We do not like any form of slavery (given our experience with it). but this is no human slavery but a divine one. We are ready to be servants, but not slaves. When we are servants, we want to serve two masters - God and money. And we must understand that God accepts only exclusive servitude. When we serve only God, we need serve no other master. It is in absolute surrender to God's will, can we find total freedom in our life.
When we surrender to God, we stay focused on him and thus cannot deviate from our purpose in life. So if one has to surrender in life, why not surrender to God instead of disability or other human problems
