As a young man, Andrew Murray wanted to be a minister, but it was a career choice rather than an act of faith. Not until he had finished his general studies and begun his theological training, in the Netherlands, did he experience a conversion of heart. In a letter to his parents, Murray wrote, "Your son has been born again. ... I have cast myself on Christ." This "casting of the self" became Murray's life theme. Sixty years of ministry in the Dutch Reformed Church of South Africa, more than 200 books and tracts on Christian spirituality and ministry, extensive social work, and the founding of educational institutions--all these were outward signs of the inward grace that Murray experienced by continually casting himself on Christ. "May not a single moment of my life be spent outside the light, love, and joy of God's presence," was his prayer. "And not a moment without the entire surrender of myself as a vessel for him to fill full of his Spirit and his love." (christianitytoday.com)

Book Review - Absolute Surrender
A short but fully packed book, Absolute Surrender first caught my attention with the illustration used of true surrender, as one uses a pencil.The pencil is totally surrender to the one who uses it, as the believer should be to his/her Lord.
This is one of my favorite books, perhaps because it provoked such thoughts of what true surrender is in the life of the Christian. Should you ever find yourself driven to know the truth about the surrendered life, select this book and encounter the concepts within.
