​I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I saw a beautiful fall picture with leaves collected in open hands.  The quote read, “The trees are about to show us how lovely it is to let things go.”  Somehow, that spoke to me, right at that time, at this season, right in this place in my life.  Letting go is usually held in a negative light: having to let go of a loved one as they pass away, let go of a dream that may not come to fruition, letting go of a job or position you had hoped to get.  This message was saying the opposite.  It was in fact, ’lovely’, to let things go.
That got me contemplating the divine and the example of Jesus in our world.  Jesus let go all the time.  He had few worldly goods of which to speak, let go of all worldly comforts during his forty days in the desert, and ultimately, letting go, obediently as he called out to God on the cross in desperation.  Sometimes, God may be calling you to let things go in your own life, within a positive context.  Is God possibly calling you to let go of resentments, past hurts or anger, an unhealthy attachment to material goods, a habitual sin?  Isaiah 43:18-19 tells us, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” 
I encourage you, in this season of fall, as you may catch the glimpse of a falling leaf, to remember that “the trees are showing us how lovely it is to let things go”.  Ask Jesus to help you and rest in the act of letting go.
