“You Have To Let Go To Enter The Kingdom” It’s not by what we offer that we enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but by what we accept. I was sailing on a catamaran when a gust of wind tipped us into the water, and the mast, which hadn’t been properly secured, came off! I desperately tried to hold on to it, but every time a wave came, my head went under. Eventually I saw sense: I had to let go of the mast so I wouldn’t drown. So I let go. I lost the expensive mast and saved my life. None of us will enter the Kingdom of God with anything in our hands. When the Bible shows us a picture of the people who have been saved in heaven, they’re not holding anything except what Jesus has given them as a free gift. That’s the shocking scandal of grace. Too many of us spend our lives trying to hold on to the things that bring us death. It’s not by what we offer that we enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but by what we accept. We must let go in order to receive. The greatest struggle we will have in our Christian lives will be to recognize that if we have accepted Jesus, then the work for our salvation is finished. Our peace and joy depend on this. What is the hardest thing for you to let go—something standing between you and a closer walk with Jesus? If you let go of it, how would your life be different? Pray over it, write it down and ask God to help you let go. Then screw up the paper and throw it away. By Dr Eliezer Gonzalez
