What It Means to Let Go

I was listening to a fabulous Zoom call last week, but was instantly baffled.

Per usual.

She talked about letting go in order to be in alignment with God.

When we are in alignment with God, things flow.

I WANT THIS.

Badly.

Please, just tell me what to do in order to make this happen STAT.

But, I was baffled because I have always been taught that we DO all we can DO, then hand it over to God.

I've been taught that we need to be proactive with our desires.

We need to do everything possible, and then He will take care of the rest.

This way of thinking pretty much wiped all of that out, and I was baffled.

I Marco Polo'd my Becky Beck.

As I do.

I told her I was baffled.

Per usual, she responded with the most simple of responses (as to not baffle me even more):

She held her two hands open.

She showed me that when our hands are open, God can put experiences in them and take them out.

He can put information in them and take information out.

We are OPEN to Him.

I am constantly white knuckling life!

I am holding on SO tight to the things I think I am supposed to be doing in order to have my desires that there is no way for Him to help me.

He DOES know our desires.

If you haven't told Him what yours are, tell Him!

He also knows the timing of everything.

Everything.

He knows when we are ready for the next step, and when we are not.

He knows who we are ready for, and who we are not ready for.

That is why it is line upon line and precept upon precept.

So, this is what I am working on right this minute...

Unclinching my fists and letting it flow.
