    Before we can “let God,” or allow Him to work in our life, we have to “let go.” We have to stop allowing ourselves to be controlled by the things of this world that hinder our usefulness to Him. Letting go and letting God is called faith.

Before we can “let God,” or allow Him to work in our life, we have to “let go,” or throw off the chains that hinder our usefulness to the Lord. We have to stop ...read more
