Letting Go

It's hard to find time for a spiritual recharge in the morning, but Linda Estes is here again to help with her mastery of the one-minute devotional.We like "e;our stuff,"e; don't we? We hold tight to our material things, our dreams, and our plans for our lives. We have things all lined out in our heads and hearts. Things are going along just fine and then God interrupts our stuff. He asks us to let go of something, or someone, we love. When that happens, we have two choices. We can either go along with God's plan or hang on to our own. Sometimes God asks us to let go of things simply to help us grow in our faith-walk with Him. Other times He asks us to let go so that He can do what Scripture tells us in Ephesians 3:20. God wants to "e;do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think."e; Only when we are willing to let go of whatever God is asking of us, can He then bless our socks off. When we let God be God and surrender "e;our stuff"e; so He can carry out His plan for our lives, that's when we really start living ... God's way. Linda's prayer for you as you read these one-minute devotions is that they will help you find the freedom and blessings in letting go.These books are for everyone who wants to start their day right with God, and make delightful gifts.
