God's Strength To Let Things Go

I just want to thank God in everything. I cling to His promise on Romans 8:28 that all things work together for good to those who obey Him. God asks me to do what seems to be impossible and difficult to do. But when I trust Him and relinquish the need to control it, I felt a sense of peace. I can let go of everything as long as He's with me...

There are things that we think we need. But in the eyes of God, it's not what you really need at all. I prayed to GOD that I need to let it go but I can't. And I realize that I am capable of doing it using His strength. My desire did not appeal to God so I asked Him to take this away from me. Believe me, it shattered my heart into bits of pieces. But He made me realize that it is just Him whom I really need.

He had a purpose. Things seemed to be as clear as mud but I trust His purpose. I trust His ways. And what is important to me right now is the courage I have to obey Him no matter how difficult it is.

I just can't stop praising Him for the strength He provides. The circumstances allowed me to be hurt and broken but I am rejoicing because with His grace, I was able to stretch my faith once again. I said to Him, I can let go of everything just for you. If there are things I still need to surrender, I know He will help me. Right now, I was really grateful for having God in my life.. What can I possibly do without Him? The tough situation allows me not only to stretch my faith but to experience more of Him, to know Him, and to draw closer to Him....
