God said, “Cast your burden down, and worry not.” Is it truly that simply, for an individual to accomplish the task? I, myself will pick up the burdens put them back on my shoulders for a while longer.
I need to feel the pressure, the weight bearing down on me. --- To experience the tension, and torment. The bills, kids, school, the car blowing up, losing my job, not finding a new one, how will I feed the children.--- This list is never-ending that is a everyday normal occurrence for most--- I will step out on a limb too say.
Can you imagine really (letting go).To lay our worries at the masters’ feet, and never give them a single seconds thought again. This is the true test of faith truly letting go… to give up all our power of thought and concerns about life changing events happening in your lives.
Give up the driver’s seat, when you adore driving, and hate being the passenger. What a test too make a passing grade on. Letting go turning the ultimate control over, to the masters competent hands---truly letting go. That is what letting go means to me… I have not quite passed the test still working on it---

You hav expressed something that is so simple but extremely difficult. I, too, am still working on Letting Go--something I will never finish on this journey of life. But I surely have room for improvement. Thanks for the reminder.
