Letting Go

My Pastor had a wonderful sermon about "Kindness". Being a Christian is not just about knowing the Word of God but it is also about how you and me show Christ in our words and actions to people around us. It seems easier said than done but I found this song in IMEEM titled "Letting Go". To be in Christ we have to let go of all those earthly possessions that holds us back in letting Him inside our hearts in order to have that character Christ in us...one of this is "Kindness".

If you look on your left side of this blog, you will "Song of the Day". And today Rebecca's Jar would like you to listen to this song "Letting Go". I have written the words too if you feel like singing along too.

May your day be bright and filled with kindness today and everyday bloggers out there.


"Letting Go"

I used to feel the emptiness inside me
I was not supposed to feel that way
I had everything I needed
But nothing ever made me
What I longed to be
The wealth, the name
The lights, the fame
Were everything to me
And then one night
Out of the blue
I heard His name (Jesus)
And so I took that step of faith
And walked into His domain
I believe that's what He wants
Every heart to do
When hard may seem the task
One step is all He asks of you

Letting go to know the truth
Is not so hard to do
It's the heart that's got the will
To open up for Him to fill
And trusting and believing Him
Is all we've got to do
It's just the heart that's got to move
For Him to show His love that's been there
Even when we never cared
Take hold of His hand
Let go and you'll understand

Why be afraid
For God knows what you're feeling
But even He can't do a thing
If He sees the heart's not willing
And so we ask what's going on
We want what's right and still do wrong
When hard may seem the task
One step is all He asks of you

I guess by now you'd realize
You can't be on your own
And all your cares
And all your burdens
Should be cast upon His throne
Letting go, just let go, letting go
Let go and you'll understand
Just let go and you'll understand
