It's amazing how much can be contained within one phrase:
Let go and let God.Like Cheri recently said, stop holding on to everything. The more you hold on to, the more eggs you're putting in that tiny little basket of yours. And one day or another everything just comes tumbling out ... and before you know it, you can cook an omelette with the yolk that's on the ground.
Sounds yummy ain't it? But trust me it won't be in real life. Because when everything comes falling out of the basket, that's when you feel like your carefully built up world has fallen around you. Because everything you've held on to for dear life now lies shattered in the mud.
So why not, hold on to God? And then let
HIM hold on to everything else you hold dear? Your studies, your finances, your work, your everything. Because you see, His basket is bigger. And the most important thing is this: When you give Him the things you're holding on to , He's now free to take each of those things out of HIS basket at His leisure and work His plans on them. He won't have to fight with you over your basket for the things in there... because now there's none.
And the greatest thing of all?
When you hold on to worldly things, things can let you down. Friendship can break us, I'm sure we all know that by now. So can our careers. But you know what?
My Bible tells me My God will never let me down. He'd neither leave nor forsake me.
So seriously, is there any disadvantage of holding on to Him and letting go of everything to Him?
Let go, let God.~*Siaw Hui~*
