Let it go!

Ms Connie sent this to me. I think it's worth posting. You may find something that speaks to you. I did. ;) Thanks Connie!

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 made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been for Us, no doubt they would have continued with us."
1 John 2:19

People leave you because they are not joined to you. Let them go. It doesn't mean that they are bad people; it just means that their part in your life story is over.

You've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to force them to stay. You've got to know and accept when dead is dead.

You've got to learn to recognize when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of goodbye. It's the tenth spiritual gift. I believe in goodbye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. If it takes too much sweat to keep it, it is no longer mine, therefore I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay. Stop trying to force them back to your story. Let them go! They have their own story to live.

Let the past be the past. GOD has already built your future! Forget the former things. LET IT GO!

You can only make room for God's Love, Peace and Blessings if you drop hatred, useless struggles and LET IT GO!

"The past cannot be changed.......the future is uncertain. Enjoy every second of your present!
