Hey, sis! Are you holding onto something in your life that you *know* God is nudging you to let go and place in His hands? Do you want to let go of something (or someone) but you struggle to truly give it to God and not worry? As hard (and as scary) as it might be sometimes, giving “it” over to God — whatever “it” is for you — is the safest place for that thing to be! In today’s video, we are going to look at scripture, specifically the Parable of the Vineyard Workers (Matthew 20:1-16), and pull 3 truths/ instructions that Jesus left us to instruct us how we can truly let go, give “it” to God, and not swing back in 5 business days and pick it back up! i hope this encourages you!!! love you

alright, sis!! Let’s chat — what is that “thing” you know God is calling you to leave in His hands in this season!? let us know in the comments below and if you’ve got a testimony to share about what’s happened on the other side of you letting something go, please encourage us below!!
For me: God is definitely calling me to let go (and not go pick back up lol) my expectations. It seems pretty general but i’ve experienced a lot of disappointment in life because of my expectations that did NOT come from God. So in this season, I’m laying them in His hands and the amount of peace I’ve experienced so far is just… a blessing.
one thing i want to give to God is truly just my future and definitely college success! i pray he gives me his guidance and grace throughout my life!
I learned something new about the term “Covet” through this video. its very difficult for me to swallow. I have this one family member who has literally everything I always wanted… at first we were on the same level and I didnt have any jealousy, envy, anything. and ive always learned to be supportive of others’ success however after I feel like ive been left behind by God and I see my family member advancing getting (again, its scary literal) literally everything I could ask or think to have in my ife since I was a child and she gets it it hurts me tremendously because I want it for me… I feel liek the worker who got to the vineyard earlier and she always get what she wants and flaunts it like shes Gods favorite or something. meanwhile i struggle and I hate it… I would never wish bad on anyone but i DO wonder why it feels like God doesnt bless ME as heavily i get blessings dont get me wrong but it happens so slowly…
Praying about something over and over. Is picking it back up
This is so easily said then to actually hold your faith. What is it for the people that have truly let go but still suffer in the physical is EXTREMELY HARD
