Genesis 12:1-4, The Lord had said to Abram, "leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you.". And this was when he was 75 years old. Can you imagine?
Letting go, starting a new, can bring on all kinds of emotions. There are times in all of our lives where God will say, "Go, then I'll show, and eventually you will know."
I could only hope that mine is never as drastic as Abrahams. Leaving friendships, relationships, family members, wow!
But knowing God, He is always leading us to a better future whether we understand it at the time or not. We can always trust His faithfulness. Plus the fact that He knows us better than we know ourselves. He will supply all we need to do what He asks of us. 2 Corinthians 12: 9 " My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect and weakness."......
Maybe it's just that you're holding too tightly to this world and all of its things. These things, that God is trying to fill that space with Himself. Maybe it's letting go of that wayward teenager. I know I was one. But the prayers that we pray for our children and grandchildrand, we can bet that they are being heard and answered in His time. Sometimes we have to learn things the hard way. Maybe it's letting go of hurt and forgiving someone. Whatever it is trust God.
May God give us the strength to let go of the past. To let go of whatever He is asking of us, so we can move forward in blind obediance with courage.
For your glory Lord
