“let go” by Sheila Walsh has been one of the most soul searching encounters I have experienced in years! Burdens are the common denominator of our conversations among women today. From burdens of the past, to burdens of the present, we tend to carry them on our backs like a backpack or have them dangling from our arms, weighing us down like so many grocery sacks. Burdens exist in all of our lives and come in all shapes and sizes.
I found myself digging into my own life, searching out the things I had held far too long. Being forgiven of the sins in my past, I knew I was saved, but there were areas that I had not released the burden of the scar and pain that had been inflicted on my heart and life. I had applied a bandaid, but had not allowed the “Healer” to do the complete work.
By aligning Biblical examples with our day-to-day lives, Sheila shares how God’s Word is clear about the slavery and imprisonment of unforgiveness, fear, temptation, shame and more! Sheila carries the torch to light our way into our complete deliverance! Sharing her own painful personal examples as a guide to show that “we are not alone!” God’s Word is STILL true and powerful and ACTIVE in our lives when we apply the principals and truths found there!
This book is most revealing of our inner heart. Complete with questions at the end of each chapter, followed by a prayer, it would be a great devotional guide for any new believer, as well as those of us who have walked this journey for many years!
If your Women’s Bible Study Group is looking for a book that will lead to deliverance and freedom in Christ…THIS IS IT!

A message I CLEARLY understand because I've lived it.
Deliverance — deliverance — deliverance! Healing from our Healer unto WHOLENESS!
A book I will get as it sounds like the path GOD journeyed me on for many years until I reached wholeness in Christ.
Good to be healed, great to be whole.
HIS healing and wholeness is available to all who believe and receive. He's a loving Abba Father.
May we all release the burdens as HE said to cast our cares upon Him for he cares for us. Amen.
I love you girl.

I am behind reading my favorite blogs.
Wish I had time to read right now but nay .. getting ready for a trip to my brothers and getting a shot in my back to help with pain and walking so will be lazy next week and leave the weekend.
Maybe you can blog more about this book. It sure sounds like it would be will worth the time to read.

A great recommendation – – the book as well as the insights.
As I've aged, and thanks to the Lord's tenacious work in my heart, carrying the burdens of guilt, shame, regret, remorse … are just not an option today. When they surface, I remind them I don't care anymore. Without wind to fan their flames they quickly die out.
What a great God have we!
Blessings,

Love the title. Most of us are prone to picking up stuff we should have left behind us.
Note to self: Let it go.
Thanks.

Amen to that one!!
I had to honor to met her and her husband this past spring. Shelia is so sweet and genuine.
At the time we met is when God was doing some pruning, so the timing could not have been more perfect.
This book is a GREAT read.
Have a great day,
Hugs

Thanks Angie for putting the word out on this new book by Sheila Walsh (one of my favorites when I go to a Women of Faith Conference). Let Go – I am in a season of doing just that! His healing, His timing – what can I say but thank you Lord! God bless…

Sounds wonderful! Do you think it would be good for someone who “believes in God” but doesn't know Him? Who has hurts…
