Letting Go

.....
Alan was going to breed the horse that he rode to a jack so I could experience a foal. Well, that was a dream I had to let go, or so I thought. You see, we had five horses at our place when Alan died unexpectedly. Knowing I couldn’t take care of them, I found them new homes. It was hard, but sometimes life is just like that. The horses weren’t the only things that I couldn’t take care of. I had to have others help me with maintaining the farm. After a year of others helping, I began to realize that there was more that I was going to have to let go of. The Lord helped me little by little to let go of things I no longer needed or could manage: household items, farm equipment … “stuff.”
Then as another year neared the end, God asked me to give up something I was not ready to give up, the home Alan and I shared. It didn’t make sense to me that the Lord would ask me to let go of a perfectly good home where so many beautiful memories and hopeful dreams were shared, yet the Lord was making it clear to me that He was asking me to let go of it. However, He didn’t just make it clear that I was to leave our home; He made a way. Through nearly a two-year process, in His perfect timing, God helped me let go. Once I did, everything started moving quickly. From the time I verbalized that I was willing to let go of the farm until God led me to find my new house, close on it, and move in -- was less than two weeks. That’s fast … that was God!
