Pastor Abedini has finally been freed after three long years of imprisonment and abuse. His wife Naghmeh's words:

“This has been an answer to prayer,” she said in a press release from the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), one of Abedini's leading advocates. “This is a critical time for me and my family. We look forward to Saeed's return and want to thank the millions of people who have stood with us in prayer during this most difficult time.” Iran Frees Pastor Saeed Abedini after Three Years in Prison | Gleanings | ChristianityToday.com

Naghmeh Abedini goes on to talk about being led to just let go and says, "So I let go. I stopped my travels. I stopped speaking. Interestingly enough, it happened when I let it go.”

This really struck me because six weeks ago I was given this same prayer advice (and have taken it). I'm curious about others' experiences in "letting go."
