Yielding Allows for Flow

“The individual spirit must be grounded in the impulse to yield–not my will but Thine.” –Sam Keene

When I drift to “life is all about me”, I am reminded that I’m not God, and it’s all about His plan, and my specific role in it. Just like yielding to oncoming traffic helps the flow without other more intrusive forms of traffic-control, yielding to God’s will improves the flow of the Spirit through me to others, without more intrusive methods of God getting my attention.  And, I’ve found yielding actually leads to contentment.
