Your focus in the race of life should be to put yourself in a position to finish the race well and to do that you don't have to win every time to be the champion. How you pace yourself in life will determine if you will have the stamina to position yourself to finish well. Choosing to surrender is the first step in pacing yourself for the final lap.
White flag moments are moments of opportunity to position ourselves to win the championship and that means we sometimes need to surrender. We look to Jesus and his life of surrender. In Jesus model of putting yourself in a position to be a champion we would need to trust in him through surrendering ourselves to his will. If we are never willing to lose anything, we can lose everything. Sometimes we need to surrender.
