Let Go & Let God
“As children bring their broken toys,
With tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God,
Because He is my friend.
But then instead of leaving him in peace to work alone,
I hung around and tried to help,
With ways that were my own.
At last, I snatched them back again and cried,
” How can you be so slow?”
“My child” He said,” What could I do?
You never did let go.”
I came across this small pink greeting card with the above poem printed beautifully on it a few weeks ago while I was cleaning up my room. The title really caught my attention, “Let Go and Let God”. I read the poem and was greatly touched by it. I found the message so meaningful and reflect to myself that am I under such an attitude towards God. Did I ever let go and let God? Or am I just doing things in my own way and not wanting God to interfere in it? I think these questions serve as a reminder during our Christian walk whereby we are so drain out with difficult situation at times in our life that we do sometimes never let goes and let God fixed it for us. Instead we may choose to walk in our way and neglecting him…
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with
all your soul and with all your strength.”
– Deuteronomy 6:5
“Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight,
“Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight,
so that it may go well with you
and you may go in
and take over the good land that the Lord
promised an oath to your forefather…”
- Deuteronomy 6:18
