God will do the very best for you. So let go.
We were on a retreat this past weekend and below you will find a testimony from each of us girls sharing something we let go.
I let go of my idea of how to worship and I'm moving into God's. My beautiful girls spoke this and more into me on Saturday night when we took some time to minister to one another. It was amazing, overwhelming and inspiring. What power our God has....

I let go of the past. The past me, imperfect notions, and relationships that God wants to change. I know I need to place not only myself and my future into God's hands, but those I love too. Life, truth, and love were spoken into me, by women I cherish so very dearly. I believe God is raising me up to be a mighty warrior princess...an Esther, a Joan of arc, a Pocahontas. The holy spirit shook things up...The old has gone, new has come.

I let go of silent restoration. Huh?
[It's a blog that's currently being written and shall be posted later].
I've released an area of my life that I've wrestled with and even cried over, as I've asked God why? I am free of the expectations that I had to have such restoration and I leave it as silent.
Because God knows the deepest desire of my heart. Tina reminded me,"Charlene, only the BEST! Your Heavenly Father is sorry that you've endured such pain, yet he has the BEST."
As the saying states, "the best is yet to come!" And I couldn't agree more!
Believing for the best, Charlene
I am letting go of the need to protect my heart from the one
who created my heart. Some of my most hidden and secret desires have been just
that…hidden and secret. I quit asking God for the desires of my heart, I quit even
acknowledging these desires to myself. The answer “wait” caused too much pain,
and not asking seemed to make the possibility of unfulfilled desires easier to
deal with. But this weekend my dear girls spoke restored hope over my life. Therefore
I will hope in the Lord and leave my desires at his feet, and as I wait I will seek
the very best, my saviour himself.
Love,

Palms Down.
With the girls all hugging me and tears streaming down my face, God said, "Let Go."
Surrender is a act of "palms down".
When you surrender with your palms down, you cannot re-pick up that which you surrender. It is impossible. I thought I had surrender to God the deepest areas of my heart, but this weekend I realized I was trying to control certain areas of my life. Why? because I was trying to protect myself from getting hurt again or experiencing disappointment in regards to relationships. I was listening to the voices of others and lies of the enemy instead of holding on to God's promises and trusting that He truly has the greatest in store for me. So, with palms down, I "let go" and decided to "let God" have full control over the deepest areas of my heart.
Freedom comes when we let go and let God take over.
What are you holding on to?
