Lord Jesus Christ, please take all my freedom,
my memory, my understanding and my will.
All that I have and cherish, You have given me.
I surrender it all to be guided by Your will.
Your love and Your grace are wealth enough for me.
Give me these, Lord Jesus, and I ask for nothing more.
- Modern version of the Suscipe by St. Ignatius of Loyola
This is a prayer that has provided me much solace ever since someone gave it to me about seven years ago. Surrendering can be very liberating.
