"It's time to let go!"

I recently watched one of my all time favorite movies, Walt Disney and Pixar's Finding Nemo. I really enjoy everything about this movie, however there is always one of the scenes that stand out to me.

While trying to find Nemo, Marlin and Dory come across a Humpback Whale, that Dory insists on asking for help, because she can speak whale. As she's speaking to this whale, the whale proceeds to open its mouth and "eat" the two traveling buddies. While in this whale's mouth Dory is enjoying the ride while the worrier that Marlin is, is protesting everything and every moment they're in this whale's mouth. Then at the very climactic moment of the scene, the amount water in the whale's mouth begins to drop and it appears that Marlin and Dory are done for. Dory asks the whale what to do, being that she can speak and understand whale, she tells Marlin that the whale insists on heading to the back of his throat. Dory eagerly does what the whale says, where Marlin protests and hangs on to one of the whale's taste buds for as long as he can.

Dory: He (the whale) says, "It's time to let go!". Everything's going to be all right! 

Marlin: How do you know? How do you know something bad isn't gonna happen?! 

Dory: I-I don't!

After that Dory lets go and both her and Marlin are shot out of this giant whale's blow hole and they end up exactly where they needed to be.

It's amazing to me, because this one short scene in the movie is the one that usually stands out the most to me. How often do I ask God for his help, however I refuse to let go and trust Him when He tells me its time. I protest constantly along the road of getting to where God wants me to be and get terrified when I'm told to let go because I don't know what the next step is or where I'm going to end up. However, every time I've surrendered to God and let go, I always end up exactly where God wants me.

How I wish I had the faith that Dory had in that whale, to relinquish control and to trust completely in the plans that God has for me.
