Daughter, let go.

Give me

What wakes you in the middle of the night.

Give me

What robs you of peace.

Give me

What you can’t figure out,

What you can’t see.

Give me

What you don’t understand.

When you give,

I will help.

I won’t help when you clutch

Your gifts,

Your prospects,

Your plans,

Your desires,

Your dreams.

Daughter, let go of them.

Trust me with them.

I will make them

Bigger,

Better,

Fruitful,

Beautiful,

More than you have dreamt.

But I can only do it

If you let go.

I won’t pry your fingers.

You must let

Go.

See Proverbs 16:9; Isaiah 43:16-19; Zechariah 4:6-7; Matthew 11:28-30; John 14:12-14; Ephesians 3:20; 1 Peter 5:7

These links share just a glimpse of the story God is telling us. When you have time, read a chapter or two around the verses to get the context and see the whole picture. My preferred Bible translation is the New Living Translation, so all links will be in that version.
