Letting go and letting God.
How many times have you heard someone say to let go and let God? If you've not heard that statement before allow me to review it here.

During every one's life there will come a time when you have to decide to let it all go. Holding on to something that is not producing fruit in your life can lead you nowhere. Believing in something that is not in the will of God only leads to disappointment.

To let go is to allow God to take the reigns. Allow Him to do the work, align the path ahead for you. This is a hard task. Learning how to let go of controlling our circumstances is a task in itself. Everyone wants to have some control over their life. Knowing that you are doing the right thing and everything will turn out alright, we hold on.

In letting go, we don't have to give up. In letting go, we can still have faith.

When we let go, we say, "Alright God, I'm letting go of trying to control everything. I'm going to let you take care of it. I'll do my part, then I'll leave the rest to you."

When we truly let go and let God, we will have a sense of peace over the situation. We don't have to let it worry us anymore. We release it; the situation, the circumstance, or even the person, to God. We allow Him to do what He wills to do.

By faith, we can let go and let God. Then watch Him work in our life.
