Let Go, Let God - Bluidkiti's Alcohol and Drug Addictions Recovery Help/Support Forums

Let Go, Let God
I let go and find answers within.

Confinement can be self-inflicted. Just like the monkey who reaches in a jar to grab a banana: When he makes a fist around the food and refuses to let go, he becomes stuck. Sometimes I find myself cramped and confined, stuck in patterns, beliefs, or behaviors that do not serve me well.

My return to freedom and renewal begins with realizing my limitations are self-imposed. With awareness, I can release my grip and turn to the Divine Presence. “Letting go” allows me to relax and realize I am not alone. “Letting God” leads me to answers, healing, and peace of mind. I am no longer confined to the ways of the past. As I place my faith in God, I open to new opportunities.
Happy are those who make the Lord their trust.—Psalm 40:4

Try to remember to let go to make room for the new. I once told a sponsee, don't worry, God has big shoulders.

What I do forget, is the fact that if I don't let go, I am carrying a heavy burden that makes it difficult to carry around.

Even when we let go with love, there is a string attached.
