Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
Psalm 42:5-6a ESV
This morning I was talking with Kelly Greer from Ain't No Mountain Too High. She reminded me that she wrote a post ("Falling in Love" with Change) that went along with a recent theme that we've been noticing...
God is calling his daughters to "Let Go!"
Just this week Lynn D. Morrissey wrote about the topic over at Redemption's Beauty in a post titled: Letting Go-In Her Words.
As a matter of fact, Shelly Miller from Remption's Beauty is writing a whole series this month on the topic: 31 Days of Letting Go.
And a couple weeks ago, Jennifer Dukes Lee from Getting Down with Jesus, saw those words in San Francisco and wrote: Why It's Safe to Let Go
I received an email from a friend during that same week, and she shared with our "band of sisters" that a little birdie told her that some of us were needing to "Let Go" of some things that were holding us back. (I paraphrased, a bit there, Kathy :) She recommended a book, she is reading, by Sheila Walsh...Let Go: Live Free of the Burdens All Women Know.
I am listening.
But the real question is will I let go? Will I surrender? Will I release myself and others from unrealistic expectations? Will I forgive?
Dear Jesus...Help me to "Let Go!"
While at the same time, You promise to never let me go! Thank You!
