Find joy and freedom in surrender
Letting go is hard.
To surrender is to let go of what we tightly grip, the good and the bad. It's a relinquishing of control, a recognition that God alone can meet our deepest needs. It's a holy pause that entrusts each hope, each worry, and each pressing concern to the One whose love for us is beyond measure. And in this surrender, we enter into freedom. But, even so, letting go often feels easier said than done.
In The Freedom of Surrender, author Mary DeMuth invites you to journey through forty days of entrusting specific areas of your life to God-your inner struggles, your family, your expectations, your regrets, your ministry, your grief, your relationships, your job, your health, your finances, your future, and more. Every daily devotion includes Scripture, prayer, and Mary's original art that help you cast each care on the One who cares for you.
On this forty-day journey, you'll learn:
- How to trust that God is in control, even in moments of chaos and stress.
- True joy and freedom can happen when we release what we're holding too tightly.
- God's plan is to see you thrive and grow.
- Prayer opens the door to freedom and peace.
- Even in your struggles, you are never alone.
When we entrust our stresses and worries to God, we embrace the reality that's always been true: Our "control" is an illusion. God alone can meet our needs, heal our wounds, and guide our steps. From this place of total reliance on God, we can experience deep joy and the peace that passes understanding.
What are you holding too tightly? Experience freedom as you invite Jesus to help you surrender all.

Rachel Wojo, author of Desperate Prayers
"In The Freedom of Surrender, Mary DeMuth reveals the paradox of liberation through letting go. Her vulnerable, raw, and insightful writing reminds the reader that letting go and finding freedom in the love of Christ is a journey we are called to daily. The prayer at the end of the daily devotion reminds us to let go of our need to control and hold onto situations out of our feeble power. She encourages readers to surrender every aspect of their lives, significant or insignificant, and rest in Christ."
E. L Sherene Joseph, writer and storyteller
"In The Freedom of Surrender, you have the opportunity to walk through the intricacies of your heart, mind, body, and soul to surrender things you didn't even know you were holding onto. Mary DeMuth's vulnerable use of art, Scripture, and relatable story guides you to a place where you can finally let go of the things that are standing in the way of deep intimacy with the Lord. Whether your past or present, your inner life or relationships with others, every corner of your heart will be touched with a chance to relinquish these things into the hands of the Father in very tangible ways, and you will grow closer and closer to the heart of God. As I strolled through each day of surrender, I experienced an opening of tightly gripped hurts, renewal deep in my heart, and true freedom in Christ. Prepare to breathe more fully!"
