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” 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.
If you will reread the creation chapter in the Bible you will notice 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.
Is any thing too hard for the Lord? (Genesis 18: 14).
One of the hardest parts of living a godly life is the “letting go” part. Adam and Eve faced that situation and failed. We humans have been having trouble with it ever since. Our genes, our culture and our ego all scream that we must be in charge of our lives and are responsible for ourselves. Yet, it is when we turn our lives over to God and let God run the show , all our needs are met for our best good. Of course, we must do our part in living according to God’s will and caring for the garden God gave us. When we do this, there is nothing that we can’t accomplish if God is in command.
Letting go,
