Breakfast with the Word Monday 14th Week Ordinary Time of the Year Shorter Version
Surrendering Our Problems to God
The reflection, based on Matthew 9:18–26, teaches the importance of surrendering our problems to God instead of living in anxiety. Drawing from Philippians 4:6–7, it emphasizes that prayer and thanksgiving bring God’s peace, which replaces worry and fear.
To surrender means handing over full control of our situations to God, trusting Him to handle what we cannot manage ourselves. Like Jairus and the woman with the issue of blood in the Gospel, we are called to bring our needs to Jesus with faith, knowing He is always willing to help.
The reflection highlights key ways to surrender our problems:
Believe God is willing to help and always ready to receive us.

Accept that some things are beyond our control and only God can handle them.
Pray persistently without losing hope.
Have strong faith, speaking and acting in trust, not doubt.
Take action, combining prayer with effort and responsibility.
Do not be afraid, but trust God completely in every situation.
In conclusion, surrendering to God brings peace, courage, and healing, because He is greater than every problem.
