Letting Go of Stuff

I just finished reading Adam Raccoon in The Lost Woods by Glen Keane to my 5-year old son.  It is a kids book that we checked out from the church library tonight.  It is a story that more adults need to hear.  The gist of the story is that we need to let go of the "stuff" that we are holding on to and hold the Master's hand to make it through the tough and scary times that we face (and day to day life).  In the story, Adam Raccoon can only get through The Lost Woods when he lets go of the of the final little things that he is holding on to and holds King Aren's hand.  How many times do we let the "things" that we let bog down our life come between us and God?  We have to let those things go and hold to his hand to get to the beauty that he has in store for us.
