Surrendering To God
$17.99
Do you ever feel that prayer has become rote repetition, or that the simple prayers of childhood have lost their meaning?
In this life-changing little book, Rev. Keith Beasley-Topliffe shares his experience of praying the Covenant Prayer-a classic prayer that calls us to surrender completely to God. Line by line, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe uses the wisdom of the prayer of surrender as a guide for those who want to learn to trust God more. With honesty and gentle humor, Rev. Beasley-Topliffe shows us how simple prayers not only express our heart’s desires to God, but also open the doorway to deeper prayer and transformation.
“Abandonment to God is at the heart of Christian formation. Prayer is the means by which we surrender to God. Keith combines these two elements in a way that enables us to grow in grace through the regular use of this classic prayer.”
Dr. Steve Harper, Vice President
Asbury Theological Seminary
The Covenant Prayer
I am no longer my own, but thine.
Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt;
put me to doing, put me to suffering;
let me be employed for thee or laid aside for thee,
exalted for thee or brought low for thee;
let me be full, let me be empty;
let me have all things, let me have nothing;
I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal.
And now, O glorious and blessed God,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
thou art mine, and I am thine.
So be it.
And the covenant which I have made on earth,
let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.

He is the pastor of Fifth Street United Methodist Church in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Keith and his wife, Carola, who is also a United Methodist pastor, reside in Marysville, Pennsylvania.
“Surrendering to God is a rich spiritual resource. . . . These strikingly honest meditations offer both fresh challenge and encouragement in helping us examine our daily actions and attitudes toward work and possessions and how we deepen our trust in God’s guidance for all of life.”
