Topic: I SURRENDER ALL (to God) (don’t write about the song) (05/07/15)
The True “Three R’s” for Life
I surrendered all to God when I got a revelation of the love He has for me. I cannot return the type of love He gives me. After developing a personal relationship during my intimate times with Him, I realize giving my life to Him was the least I could do. It’s like the parent/child relationship. You never realize how much your parents loved you until you begin to grow emotionally in life. And with each memory of the sacrifices they made, you want to repay them with more love, gifts and words of praise. You want to shower them with love for the remainder of their years on earth. That’s how it is with God for me. Relationships are needed for growth and realization of your true identity. They give you the opportunity to make sacrifices or remain self-centered. The choice is yours and how you choose determines your growth or stance. If you make the sacrifices, the relationship will grow and develop a stronger bond that will flourish. If you remain self-centered it will eventually severe the relationship. God desires for our relationship with Him to grow and develop through all the hurts and pains. He gave the ultimate sacrifice of His son Jesus to have a relationship with me, so I surrender my life to Him.
Religion introduced me to Him, relationship is how I get to know Him and revelation is what keeps me with Him.

There are some good reminders in here.

I would have expanded on this. This feels very short, and there's nothing really "new" here. Try to give us one thing that will really stay with the reader. Also, it would be good to divide your article into paragraphs.

Nice job. I liked your "three Rs" at the end.

Really like the three Rs. I would have probably introduced them earlier, and possibly expanded this a bit. Great reminder for all of us.
