Abandonment, what is it?

Reason, logic, or any other cognitive faculties within the human mind are, at best, resources to draw upon. But the pristine sacrifice goes beyond relinquishing possessions and internal emanations; it encompasses surrendering the entirety of one's being to God. This means you relinquish everything within your grasp as far as the grace permits. This is abandonment.

And what characterizes total and perfect abandonment? It is our recognition of our absolute destitution willingly placed in the hands of God. We say to Him, "Lord, exercise your will in me entirely; let your purpose unfold within me." The emphasis here is on internal transformation: God working within to nurture one to full spiritual stature, a process unfolding over time and extending even into eternity.

While external signs may be absent, God remains faithful, ever mindful, and committed to delivering those ensnared, oppressed, or navigating a spiritual wilderness—individuals anchored in trust in God, sacrifice, and complete abandonment discover the pathway to liberation.
