A Prayer for Letting Go ..... Letting go is scary. Letting go means letting go of control. No one wants to be out of control. But you can’t control everything. You can’t control outcomes. Trusting God means letting go. The outcome is in God’s hands. God knows every situation and what is on every person’s heart. The sooner you let go and let God handle a challenge or problems, the sooner you will feel lighter. When we let go, we turn our struggle and worries over to God. Holding onto past hurts, past mistakes, anxious and fearful thoughts, etc. clutters our mind and spirit. We can become a prisoner of our own thoughts. The Apostle Paul urges us to, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:2 You can’t experience freedom if anxious, obsessive, fearful thoughts clutter your mind. Letting go and letting God’s loving Spirit fill your heart and mind will set you free. “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” 2 Cor. 3:17 Here is a prayer to help you let go and let God. Pray with me: Dear God, In this moment, we let go of all thoughts and concerns. When we let go, we are able to receive. When our hands are formed into tight fists, we cannot open our hands to receive anything. When we hang onto tight control, when we close off our heart and our spirit, we cannot receive Your blessings for us. We let go to receive Your blessings. Letting go in this moment, we receive Your loving presence around us and within us. Help us to let go when we are feeling overwhelmed, so that we may receive Your peace. Help us to let go when we feel fear so that in fear’s place we may receive love and courage. We let go of problems and challenges in order to receive Your guidance and clarity. We let go and trust You. We will not fall. You will catch us. We let go and trust in the still, small voice inside of us. Help us not to struggle but to surrender our struggle to You. We gladly receive this gift of letting go and letting You lead us and guide us. Amen. May your week ahead be blessed my Beautiful Sisters! Much Love, Your Sister in Christ
