Suzi-
A friend recently sent this motivational piece that I would like to share with you. I printed it and read it hourly. Every time I reach for my phone to JUST text
HI... or email
How have you been? or drop by
to visit... I read this again. So far it is helping.
LET IT GO!There are people who can walk away from you and
hear me when I tell you this - when people can walk
away from you: let them walk. I don't want you
to try to talk another person into staying with you,
loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to
see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The
Bible said that, "they came out from us that it might
be manifest that they were not for us. For had
they been of us, no doubt they would have continued
with us." (1John 2:19).
People leave you because they are not joined to you.
And if they are not joined to you, you can get super
glue and you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it
doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means
that their part in the story is over. And you've got
to know when people's part in your story is over so
that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.
You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to
know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've
got the gift of goodbye. It's not that I'm hateful,
it's that I'm faithful, and I know what ever God means
for me to have He will give it to me. And if it takes
too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to
stay. Let them go!!!
LET IT GO!!!

of a broken relationship. ..Let it go!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't
even try to help themselves.. .Let it go!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed...Let it go!
If there is a particular situation that you are so
used to handling yourself and God is saying
"Take your hands off of it,"
then you need to...Let it go!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things.
God is doing a new thing for you! LET IT GO!!!
Get right or get left...think about it, then...LET IT GO!!!
Let God's love, peace, and blessings be with you always...
The past cannot be changed...the future is still in your power!
