headed in this direction

Gripping on so tight with the security I have inside
Knowing what is right holding onto my pride

Letting go of the things I hold so dear
Letting go of all my pain and all my fears
Letting go of the things I hold so dear
Letting go of all my pain and all my fears

I have been brought to a place
Where I want to give up everything
Where all I can do is seek your face
And my brokenness I will bring

Holding on to the things I deem so strong
Holding on even though I know I've held on too long
Holding on to the things I deem so strong
Holding on to what I know

I'm letting go

I was reminded of this song this last week as I spent time in Thailand for a big meeting. In my last update I mentioned being in storm, well God is bringing me closer to the point that He wants me to reach in this storm. As the chorus says, " Letting go of the things I hold so dear Letting go of all my pain and all my fears" This is exactly what I'm having to do, but thankfully I'm not doing myself, God is doing it. I could never do it alone. God also showed me this verse in Isaiah 38:17 this last week:

Indeed, it was for [my own] welfare
that I had such great bitterness;
but Your love [has delivered] me
from the Pit of destruction,
for You have thrown all my sins behind Your back.

Thank you Father for bringing me through this storm and for throwing all my sins behind Your back.
