"Letting Go"

 

I recently came across this paper on Letting Go.  I can't remember
where I got it, but I typed on a typewriter, before I had a
computer!

I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I have.


To let go is not to regret the past, but to grow and live for the future.

To let go is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each
day as it comes, and to cherish myself in it.

To let go is not to deny, but to accept.

To let go is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes, but
to allow others to affect their destinies.

To let go is not to fix, but to be supportive.

To let go is not to try to change another, it's to make the most of myself.

To let go does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else.

To let go is to fear less and to live more.

Blessings to all of you

Protection

Psalm 91

Live under the protection of the Lord most high,

and stay in the shadow of God All-Powerful.

Then you will say to the Lord,

You are my fortress, my place of safety;

you are my God, and I trust you."

The Lord will kep you safe from secret traps

and deadly diseases.

He will spread his wings over you and keep you secure.

His faithfulness is like a shield or a city wall."

You won't need to worry about dangers at night

or arrows during the day.

And you won't fear diseases that strike in the dark

or sudden disaster at noon.

You will not be harmed,

though thousands fall all around you.

And with your own eyes you will see

the punishment of the wicked.

The Lord Most High is our fortress.

Run to him for safety,

and no terrible disasters will strike you or your home.

God will command his angels to proect you

wherever you go.

They will carry you in their arms,

and you won't hurt your feet on the stones.

You will overpower the strongest lions

and the most deadly snakes.

The Lord says,

"If you love me and truly know who I am,

I will rescue you and keep you safe.

When you are in trouble, call out to me.

I will answer and be there to protect and honor you.

You will live a long life and see my saving power."
