Let Go

As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I was thinking about what it means to LET GO.  There are so many things we need to LET GO of!  We may need to let go of hurts from the past.  We may need to let go of relationships or friendships that are unhealthy.  We may need to let go of holding in anger and resentment.  The good thing about letting go of things is that it makes room to HOLD ON to things that are truly important.  

Think of what you need to let go of.  Make a list of four or five things that trouble you.  Then make a list of four or five things that you want to embrace.  As I was working on my list this morning, I had to stop at four or five, because I probably have fifteen things I need to let go of!  It’s amazing how this small exercise can put things into perspective.  

But today, I’m going to pick just four or five.  My list of what I need to hold on to is inspired by Jesus.  I need to hold onto HIS love, HIS strength, HIS word, HIS forgiveness, and HIS mercy. 

Have a blessed day!
