Let Go and Let God

I saw this phrase on Pinterest a while back. It has been my mantra lately. It needs to be a permanent part of my life. It's a hard thing to "Let Go and Let God," but I know it's necessary. We are not in complete control of our lives. There's a lot that's out of our control. 

I've also really liked the song below. I need to "let go" of the life I've planned for me. Nothing ever goes the way we want to, but whatever direction the Lord allows our lives to go in is for the best. 

"I'm Letting Go" by Francesca Battistelli

My heart beats, standing on the edge
But my feet have finally left the ledge

Like an acrobat
There's no turning back

[Chorus]
I'm letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I'm falling and that's what it's like to believe
So I'm letting go

This is a giant leap of faith
Trusting and trying to embrace

The fear of the unknown
Beyond my comfort zone

[Chorus]
I'm letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I'm falling and that's what it's like to believe
So I'm letting go

Giving in to your gravity
Knowing You are holding me
I'm not afraid

Feels like I'm falling and that's what it's like to believe
Feels like I'm falling and this is the life for me
