Poetry Devotion Let Go

Let go and let God.
Cliché
Easier said than done
Letting go the need to control
Letting go pride and unforgiveness
Letting go hurts
Letting go…

Beginning to understand, finally.
Life happens
Yet only God can change my heart
Bring wholeness as I let go my burdens
They hold me back,
Make me miserable,

As I offer them up
He takes my hurting, angry heart
And helps me let them go, move forward,
Lighter, whole, without anchors holding me back

He asks what is both simple and difficult
To come, ask, hand Him those things
We’re holding on so tightly,
For letting go and letting God
Sets us free to be all God designed us to be.

Let go…it can be done.
It is a choice.

“Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.   
——Matthew 11:28 NASB
