LETTING GO
Letting go …
such is optimistic response to an inevitability
turning blues toward radiant hues
while creating goodness of vibrancy
transforming frustration toward goodness glow.
Letting go …
such is welcoming with awesome anticipation
freedom of jubilant engagement
with life’s reality along sweet blissfulness
bringing joyous consequence.
Letting go …
such is focusing to another perspective
midst prayerful paradigm shift
smiting skepticism gripped by doubt
while championing trust in the Sovereign Lord.
Letting go…
such is viewing with faith an accident
midst learning circumspectly along discretion
that those I hold tight with grip so ardent
may break me, leaving deep hurt.
Letting go…
such makes me thank God Who knows what is best
since nothing slips from His hand
as He holds me within His love
protected within His mighty fortress*.
Letting go…
such leads me toward pressing on
bouncing forward against delusion
while reaching-out midst serene hope
spreading kindness by grace divine.
*Psalms 18:2 “The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.”
