Let go and you'll understand

While cleaning my room earlier, I was listening to my OPM tracks and this song from Gary V made me pause to relish the moment. It was timely as I was letting go of old stuff (putting 'em in boxes) leaving only what I need.

Yes, sometimes it's difficult to let go of things, but if we just try to assess and see if it'll benefit us more if we let go, it'll be easier for us to.. just let go.

But this song doesn't just talk about letting go of material things.
It's more than just letting go.. it's about emptying ourselves and opening up to Him to be filled.

It is my prayer that you'll be richly filled as you begin to embrace what He has to offer.

God bless you. Have a great week ahead. c",)


Letting Go
Artist: Gary Valenciano

I used to feel the emptiness inside me
I was not supposed to feel that way
I had everything I needed
But nothing ever made me
What I longed to be
The wealth, the name
The lights, the fame
Were everything to me
And then one night
Out of the blue
I heard His name (Jesus)
And so I took that step of faith
And walked into His domain
I believe that's what He wants
Every heart to do
When hard may seem the task
One step is all He asks of you

Letting go to know the truth
Is not so hard to do
It's the heart that's got the will
To open up for Him to fill
And trusting and believing Him
Is all we've got to do
It's just the heart that's got to move
For Him to show His love that's been there
Even when we never cared
Take hold of His hand
Let go and you'll understand

Why be afraid
For God knows what you're feeling
But even He can't do a thing
If He sees the heart's not willing
And so we ask what's going on
We want what's right and still do wrong
When hard may seem the task
One step is all He asks of you

I guess by now you'd realize
You can't be on your own
And all your cares
And all your burdens
Should be cast upon His throne
Letting go, just let go, letting go
Let go and you'll understand
Just let go and you'll understand
