IT’S TIME TO LET 'EM GO!

I know so many people who are weighted down with the cares of this life; declining finances, family issues, health concerns, marital problems, depression and the list goes on and on. There are many whose situation is compounded by the fact that it is not just one, but multiple issues being thrown at them simultaneously. It is a wonder that they can even find the strength to go on. I am in that place where I feel like if one more thing comes up I am going to collapse under the pressure. I had to find some relief, an answer to this heaviness. In my despair I cried out to God and said “Where are you in this?”  I was quickly reminded of the scripture found in 1Peter 5:7 “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” So you know what I did, I gave all my worries, my cares, my concerns to God. I prayed and released each and every care over to Him. I realized that it is too much for me to carry and so are yours. It only weighs us down so much so that we are of no use to ourselves or anyone else. That is a tactic of the enemy so that we won’t focus on doing what we were put here to do, fulfill our purpose. If you are carrying a load of cares and concerns, I declare today as a day of release. Release the pain, the frustration, the constant worry, the fear, and the disappointment. It’s time to let ‘em go!
