Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.—Colossians 3:2 (NIV)
Is something bothering you? The secret to healing past hurts or future worries is to let God’s grace flow in. Yet as easy as it sounds, “letting God” is one of the hardest things to do. Loosen your grasp of forcing the outcome that you want and know that those things that you cannot handle, God can. He is with you now and wants to help. Open up and let Him in.
Dear Lord, help me let go and let You take over. You are my very present help!
