Mary DeMuth describes herself as “a fellow struggler who is learning that what we think about God matters, how we allow Him to reign in our hearts matters, and how we obey Him in the moment matters. It all matters. Everything.”

She has been abused, foreclosed upon, abandoned and betrayed. She has been pressed and drained till it was too much. But it was just enough to bring her to a place of surrender, piece by precious piece. In that surrender, she found the freedom of giving everything to God. And through Scripture, community, and the work of the Holy Spirit, she gives it all over again, every day.

Here, she shares 10 ways that you can make Him your “everything,” too.
