Let Go and Let God

With the remodeling of our bathroom going on, I am reminded that I do not like change. Sometimes I seem to do OK. And actually I really thought that I was dealing with change a lot better. I mean - look at ALL the changes going on in my family over this past year. Yes, it has been hard but doable.

Well last night when my husband jumped into the job of remodeling our bathroom and I came in on the middle of it - I was thrown for a bit of a loop. The things that I use on a daily basis were here and there through the house and I did not know for sure what he had done with half of the stuff. So I was stressed out. And truthfully I was stressed out until about an hour or two ago when I finally remembered that sometimes in your life the very best thing that you can do is to Let Go and Let God. You know the truth is that I can handle my house being a mess. There are such worse things that could be going on. So why am I stressing out so much about this. If the house is not tidy, that is fine. It is understandable to have a mess. Any time that you rearrange things or remodel - there is a mess for a bit but what you get in the end is usually well worth the effort and the mess.

I am also finding that there are many situations in life that the phrase - "Let Go and Let God" are really the best motto. There are many times in our lives that we do not have control over what is going on and it is just best to stop trying to control these uncontrollable things and just let God have them. By Letting Go and Letting God we are also showing Him that we trust Him. He is trustworthy with these things in our lives. There is so much freedom when we turn our troubles over to His care.

So I have decided that I will Let Go of the stress that I have been feeling about this remodel job. I will Let God be in control and I will go with the flow. And honestly I am sure that my husband is so glad that I finally came to that conclusion. I am a lot more fun to be around when I am trusting God.

So today, if you find yourself dealing with something that you do not feel like you have control over.. Let Go and Let God...and then relax knowing that the one that created you and loves you so very much- that he died on the cross for your sins and so that you could have the gift of salvation will take care of the burden for you. And he will take care of you. Let Go...Let God.
