1 Peter 5:7 (KJV) 

7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

After receiving salvation, we often think about what we need to gain more knowledge, wisdom, and faith. But the truth is, spiritual life isn’t just about accumulating more. It's about learning to let go. We must unlearn to truly learn.It's about acknowledging our flaws, our weaknesses, and our limitations, and then entrusting those to God.

Letting go is one of the most difficult yet liberating things we can do. We like to be in control, to hold on tightly to our worries, our plans, and even our mistakes. But God invites us to release those burdens to Him.

God wants us to cast all our cares upon Him, because He's the only one that truly cares for us.

He cares about your struggles, your flaws, and your fears, and He’s more than capable of handling them.

Letting go isn’t losing control; it’s finding peace.

When we try to manage everything on our own, we carry a burden we were never meant to bear. The more we hold on, the more weighed down we become. But when we let go, when we place our concerns and flaws into God’s hands, we experience a peace. 

Acknowledging our flaws is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign of wisdom.

It’s an acknowledgment that we are imperfect, that we don’t have it all together, and that we need God’s help. When we bring our flaws before God and trust Him with them, we’re no longer bound by the pressure to be perfect. Instead, we find freedom in His grace.

Spiritual growth doesn’t come from striving to be perfect. It comes from surrendering to the One who is perfect. It’s not about holding on but letting go and trusting God to do the work. The more we release to God, the more peace he gives to us. Letting go must be a daily thing. Every day we have an opportunity to hand over our worries, our plans, and our flaws to God. Every day is an opportunity to experience God and grow in faith. God is fully capable of taking care of everything, he only asks us to trust him.

Please remember that surrendering isn't giving up, it's giving in. 

Take a moment today to reflect on what you’re holding on to. Whether it's worry, your kids, your health, or future. Then ask yourself "What would it look like for you to let go and give that to God?" I believe by faith, he can handle all those problems in your life better. I hope we can truly trust God fully today. Amen!
