Let Go by Sheila Walsh
“’We missed you last night,’ a voice said with a definite edge. ‘Yes, I’m sorry. I got home late and was so tired, and I hadn’t taken the dog for a walk in two days. And I’m not─’ ‘Oh, we understood,’ the voice cut in. ‘It’s just so easy to get into bad habits. Remember, the believer who tries to stand alone is easy prey for the enemy.’ ‘Yes, I know, but it’s just that─’” This poor woman is suffering from the effects of her chemotherapy. Her church is falsely judging her and not allowing her to tell them why she has been unable to attend church services. Sheila Walsh in her book Let Go addresses this problem, as well as other pertinent problems like this that we, as Christians, need to overcome. Let Go is beautifully written. The text in each chapter coincides with its chapter heading. The layout of each chapter is superb: first, authority; second, real-story; third, explanation of, and answer to, problem; fourth, questions for the reader; last, a prayer for the reader. I’ve enjoyed this book immensely and will continue to read it over and over again. It’s exceptionally inspirational, “A lamp unto my feet.” I feel most Christians reading Let Go, will not “Let Go” of it, that is, the book!
