Letting go can be one of the hardest things God asks us to do—whether it’s a dream, a relationship, a role, or a season that’s come to an end. But surrender isn’t a sign of loss—it’s an act of trust. 📖 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!” — Isaiah 43:18–19 📖 “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” — 1 Peter 5:7 In today’s prayer, we release what we no longer need to carry. We choose to trust God with what’s behind us and believe He is faithful to lead us into what’s ahead. His love is not stuck in yesterday—it’s already working in tomorrow. When we surrender the past, we make room for what He is doing now.
