In Genesis, the first book of the Bible, you will remember that God creates by “letting.” God said “let,” at every act of creation, and it was done. Now God creates by means of you if you will let him, but you must let. Someone said, “Let go and Let God,” and this is a wonderful recipe for overcoming fear or getting out of a tight place. In any case, the rule for creation is always to let.
People often say, “I try to do so-and-so, but I fail.” The explanation for their failure is contained within the words themselves. You should never “try”; you should “let” – let God. When you “try=E 2 to do things, you are working from the outside. When you let God do them through you, you are working from the inside and success must come. After all,
Is any thing too hard for the Lord? (Genesis 18: 14).
God sent to us the operating manual for a happy and fulfilled life as mortal humans now and forever in God’s presence. If we will let that manual guide our thoughts, words and deeds, then God will manifest his will through us and will make inevitable our success.

Good Morning Garden 
I’ve been contemplating the “Let” part for a few weeks as I’ve been memorizing Romans 12. I found it interesting that Paul said, “If a man’s gift is prophesying, LET him use it in proportion to his faith. It it is serving, LET him serve; if it is teaching, LET him teach…LET him encourage…LET him give generously…LET him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, LET him do it cheerfully.”
I wonder if there aren’t two parts to this. One, the leaders of the church need to LET the people use their gifts. Too often the leaders don’t. And two, it is permission from God to use the gifts correctly. For instance, if we are showing mercy, LET us not forget to do it cheerfully.
Those are just some thoughts on the word “Let.” Thanks for your post.
Blessings,

Jim,
Thank you for taking time to respond to the post. It is always my prayer that these postings bless the reader as much as the author.
The reason for the blog name is my belief that God gave us an Eden in which to live. All we have to do is “Let” his will be ours and we can reenter that garden.
Peace be with you,
Z gardener
