Afraid of letting go...
This may be a common feeling/thought for some. Especially when you are taking a huge step of faith as we are. There is no room for holding on, no space for looking back. I want what God has for my future and I will not be able to fully grasp what he has in store, if I am holding on to something- fear, doubt, uncertainty etc. I have to know that God will provide for our needs, as he always has, despite huge changes being made. I will admit, it is not the easiest thing to do. My flesh wants to dig in my heels and drag my feet, my spirit wants to dive in and not look back. I am learning that is the difference between allowing the spirit to lead you and living in the flesh. My flesh is fearful and faithless. That is a bad combination. The spirit eagerly awaits, even zealously awaits God's plans and future. I certainly want the latter of the two, I want to live by the spirit, and allow God to work in me and through me. That is impossible if I am allowing my flesh to control me, my thoughts and my desires. So, as for me and my house- we are letting go and letting God! Is there something you are not letting go of?
