The Need To Let Go

The need to Let Go As children bring their broken toys With tears for us to mend, I took my broken dreams to God, Because He is my friend,..... But instead of leaving Him in peace to work alone, I hung around and tried to help With ideas of my own. At last I snatched them back, And cried.. "How could you be so slow?" "My child" He said,"What could I do?... You never did let go". Pray and Let go.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
