Are you resting in His hands?

I have the pleasure of speaking and working with a lot of people from all walks of life everyday.
Whenever I hear someone say:  I just don't know...or I can't believe...or my favorite (which I use often)
I am living the way God wants me to live, why do I feel like I'm being punished?

I come before you today to say this:
REST in HIS HANDS!

I love a story about a grandfather and his grandson sitting in the living room one evening.
The grandson breaks a toy and cries and cries.
The grandfather says, "Hand me the toy and I will do everything I can to fix it for you."
The grandson stops crying for a moment, lifts the toy up to the grandfathers hand and instead of placing the broken, unuseable toy in the grandfather's hand, he yanks it back and cries again.
The grandfather says in a gentle, loving voice to his grandson, "I can't help you unless you let go of it."

What are you hanging onto today that needs to be placed in our Heavenly Father's hands?

He cannot fix it unless we let go.

Blessings, Tina
