LET. Wielded by the Holy Spirit, this tiny word had a huge impact on Martha’s life, and the adventure can be yours, too, if you just LET God be GOD.
Devotional
Hebrews 12:1 AMPC
…let us strip off and throw aside every encumbrance (unnecessary weight)…
It seems that Jesus never hurried and never worried. He ever left it all – and Himself as well – in the hands of the Father.
As we stand beside Christ’s measured pace of unburdened simplicity, we can see the madness of our oh-so-weary human nature. Hurry, worry, fret, and hassle—for us that is normal life. “How else could it be?”
Before faith can happen, there has to be an unburdening, a leaving, a stripping and only then…a coming.
