Whether its a relationship, painful news, or a situation completely out of my control I find myself with the daily struggle of letting go. I tend to think I can do things in my own strength or in my own power. Surely MY time frame, means, and desire are completely superior to the Creator of Life. . .
It goes against our nature to give something up, to turn it over to someone else, to release it from our grasp.
We want control over our destinies to be "free" and be "ALL we can be".
But guess what? There's someone who sees the WAY bigger picture. His desire is what glorifies Himself and THAT is what's best for you. No matter how complicated a life puzzle seems he can solve it and He'll reveal Himself to you along the way. His ways surpass understanding.
No matter what you're facing, even if you think you have it under control. Let. it. go. Give it to Him. He'll guide it and in the end.
There's hope.
So let it go.
"I've been holding on so tight
Look at these knuckles
They've gone white
I'm fighting for who I wanna be
I'm just trying to find security
But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one's who lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say. . .
Let. It. Go."
