Now I’m learning to let go of the hopes and dreams that I had. It’s not as easy as it sounds. Some areas that require total surrender are so difficult to let go. How do you take dreams that mean so much and lay them at the altar?
When I was 16 years olds, I dedicated my life into the ministry. I was fearless and willing to follow God wherever he led. Somewhere along the broken road I lost that courage. Now I’m consumed with fear and distractions as I see my “ministry” changing appearances. This isn’t at all what I envisioned. I’m at the point where I have to take a leap of faith. I’m trying to trust Him as I move forward and step outside of my comfort zone. “Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." (Joshua 1:9)
I know God wants to use my story, but I’ll admit that the enemy still tries to make me feel inferior. Then there are times that I’m overcome with grief. There is no going back, so I continue walking forward, living one day at a time. “I am trusting you, O Lord, saying, ‘You are my God!’ My future is in your hands” (Psalm 31:14-15).
I'm letting Go
