Let Go
You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely. Psalm 139:1-4
There are 8.2 billion people in approximately 200 countries in the world who speak 7 thousand different languages. In the United States alone, there are 346 million, 790 thousand, 860 people. Yet, God still knows I’m surrounded by bean and corn fields. He knows I love summer. He knows what makes me laugh and what makes me cry. He knows the number of hairs on my head. He cares about every aspect of my life and understands me better than I understand myself.
Isn’t it comforting to know we have a heavenly Father who knows us so well and loves us so much? Sometimes I’m tempted to keep things to myself and not go to God with it. I don’t want to bother Him with things I’m trying to handle on my own. God doesn’t want that or expect it. Everything is important to God and never a bother. He wants us to come boldly to His thrown. He wants us to come to Him with all things.
What have you been trying to manage on your own? You have a God who knows you and loves you. He’s ready to help. Isn’t it time you talk to Him about it? Better yet, isn’t it time you put whatever it is in HIS hands. Let go and give it to God.
