LOOK UP! TRUST! LET GO!
Oh the words that are so easy to say,
yet really hard to do especially when
you are at the end of your rope or
when a loved one is at the end of their rope or
when you are so committed to
Trying harder & Working harder & Loving harder &
Doing all that you know what it takes.
BUT then you come to a sudden halt because you feel
HOPELESS~
because you realize that you can't do it all
no matter how hard you try
because you just can't
heal a loved one or even yourself.
The pressure we put on
SELF
to do the impossible that is impossible,
but we try anyway
even though we know what we really need to do is to
LOOK UP & TRUST & LET GO.
BUT you don't fully because it takes
SURRENDER
which makes us
VULNERABLE~
feeling totally helpless~
because you are at a place of choice of no choice
but to
LOOK UP & TRUST & LET GO.
BUT JESUS
stands with open arms to
ALL
who cries out
no matter
what you are feeling
no matter
what you are going through
no matter
what you want changed that won't change
because
JESUS
wants us to
LOOK UP & TRUST & LET GO
to
HIM
so
HE can do the impossible in our hearts that we are trying to do ourself~
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to ME. Get away with ME & you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest.
Walk with ME & work with ME—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company
with ME & you’ll learn to live freely & lightly” (Matthew 11:28-30 The Message).
Are You At The End Of Your Rope?
Do You Know Someone Who Is At The End Of Their Rope?
The end of the rope is not a bad place,
because that means that there is a rope
that is being held by the
ONE
who is asking us
TO LOOK UP~
"I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From where shall my help come?
My help comes from the LORD, WHO made heaven & earth" (Psalm 121:1-2 NASB*)
TO TRUST~
"But those who trust in the LORD for help will find their strength renewed...."
TO LET GO~
so that
"...They will rise on wings like eagles; they will run & not get weary;
they will walk ¬ grow weak" (Isaiah 40:31*)
You are one step away,
yet sometimes it is the most difficult step to take
yet the only one we need to do
because
GOD IS
always at the other end of our rope!
Let's FAST from holding so tightly by
SURRENDERING
to the ONE who is always holding tightly to us
and
LOOK UP & TRUST & LET GO!
Listen to the song
"OH MY SOUL"~
