Phil. 4: 6-7 - "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
How to let go! When children become ill we pray and try to strike a bargain with the Lord. We try everything upon this kingdom to bring healing for our child. then we realize that there isn't anything here in our world to make that happen. Through prayer I came to realize that I needed to trust God with all parts of my life. that includes all my children, grand-kids, great grand-kids, everyone and everything in my life. My prayers changed to praying for God's will, not mine to be done and for the strength to go through it. To let go meant that our son would be healed when he finished his journey here and is now experiencing God's glory. My husband and I thank God for the time He allowed us to have our son. He gave us our son as a gift and we needed to freely give him back - to freely let him go.
