Letting Go And Letting God

Sometimes somethings seem so impossible to us or we don’t know how to go about somethings. Now, this is where you as a human have to let go and let God, the higher power handle this for you. If you don’t believe in God, you just have to let go and let the universe help you.

For example say you need $50, 000 to do something but you don’t know where or how you’re going to get that kind of money in say a month. But if you let go and let God without using your own strength which in matters like this can get you nowhere, opportunities come in from unexpected directions and means that make you get that $50, 000. Or somebody might even come to you and give you $50, 000 as a gift. Impossible? Not to me. Cos I believe that everything is possible. Everything that is called a thing is possible.

Three days ago, I was having a tough time on how to go about tackling some things that I want to be done in my life but don’t know how. The tough time I was having was that I couldn’t really let go and decide that okay I’m going to let God or the universe handle everything for me now. Guess it was ego or something. Cos just keeping quiet about something that is going on and saying okay I’m going to let God, isn’t something that is really easy to do, right? Yeah, so I was having a hard time. But I was able to make a final decision and let go and let God, yeah, finally. And after that it’s been all great and amazing. I’ve been stress-free and feel so free and relaxed and very happy than I did when I wanted to tackle all things by myself.

So How Do You Do This Letting Go And Letting God?

Well, it’s not easy at first, I will admit that. But when done continuously without stop or giving up, you become really good at it and in the long run perfect at it. It’s a habit and a habit takes time to become a habit, right? Yeah.

So to do this, when any problem arises or anything that you can’t tackle arises, just tell God in your head, or through speech or prayer (any means you find comfortable) that you can’t do this and that he should do that particular thing for you, meaning you are giving sole responsibility of the thing being done to Him. And then don’t think about what you asked God again. And don’t worry about it again too. Now, you’ll see the wonders you’d get when you do this. You’ll be totally surprised. You’ll also feel so free, happy, relaxed, and stress-free when you do this. So it helps your health too). Now, before you get all bouncy here. You must have patience a lot, because if you don’t, you’ll always go back to thinking about it and when God or the universe is going to work it out for you and it won’t work that way. You have to believe that God or the universe can and will do that for you.
If you don’t believe in God too, just use the same approach I talked about with the God one and remember to have a lot of patience here too. Just the same approach but no God in here but rather your higher power. Or if you are an atheist, then substitute God with the universe. That’s all.

And here's a wonderful poem to compliment the whole message I've shared today. I found this poem on Priya's blog three days ago. It talks about letting go and letting God. It will help you get clear on letting God and it will also strengthen and inspire you to do so :).

Are you in a battle?
Facing the enemy everyday
Your efforts seems so puny
And the enemy seems to be getting larger by the day.
You are holding on to your courage,
You are holding on to your faith,
The duration seems endless,
Your battle seems so pointless.
A million doubts rise within you,
Can I make it to the finish line?
And a voice within you claims
The battle is not yours its mine!
Try as hard as you can,
On your own strength you won’t go far,
Lean on me and I will make you
Wear the victor’s crown.
Because you need to understand
That the battle belongs to the Lord!


So how do you handle your matters? Do you let a higher power like God or whoever you serve or the universe handle the problems that are more than you or you do it yourself with your own mind and power?
