If people can walk away from you, let them walk. Your destiny is never
tied to anybody who 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 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't make them stay. Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are bad people. It just means that their
part in your story is over. And you've got to know when other 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 good-bye. It's the
tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful,
it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have
He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it.
Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was
never intended for your life, then you need to ..LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ...LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your
worth...LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you ... LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge...LET IT GO!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction ... LET IT GO!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or
talents ... LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude...LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better... LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level
in Him... LET IT GO!!!>br>
If you are struggling with the healing 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 everyday!!! LET IT GO!!! Get Right or Get Left... think about it,
and then LET IT GO!!! "The Battle is the Lord's!"

Ah so much is easier said than done. It's soooooo hard to let go. You form this attachment in your mind and it just stays there. I hate it. But beautiful words, thanks for posting it. |

hi! i wandered in here from cher's site. when i was reading this post i thought to myself, "wow... i do beleive i've found a soulmate..." hehehehe... i agree totally with this what you're saying. i too believe in the pwer of goodbye. i have no problems walking away no matter how much it hurts. no point in staying angry... just let it go and "maybe" one day, paths will cross again... ^_^ but in the meantime, just live life with no regrets... |

hi blossom! i think you are right. people need to let go of a lot of things. i try to do that, even when i'm angered or depressed. it's only best. they say what's in the past you should let it go and live on.
the one thing i dont understand or get is, why do people say 'if you love someone, let that person go'. i.. dont..can't understand that. why is that? if you get the chance explain it to me :)! have a great weekend!! |
