There comes a time in our lives as men and women there is something we have to let go. Letting go could be a relationship, a business, a friendship, or even self habits that are not beneficial. Whether by choice or not, letting go can be difficult especially if its something you like, someone you love, or just your comfort zone pertaining to your career or way of living.
It's human nature to resist change sometimes and come to grips with letting go of something that you want but may not be in the will of God for your life. It can become a strain on a person's emotions, decisions, and overall behavior.
I've come to learn in this life that everything I want or desire may not always be what God has for my life. As a man sometimes this can be hard to accept. I realize being driven to be successful, love someone from your heart the best you can, being strong for your family can be overwhelming and allow you to be reluctant to relinquish that thing you familiar and comfortable with.
It's all a part of the process in this journey of life we all at some point have to go through.
In the bible the words says in Philippians 4:7, "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Poetic Thought:
Time is of essence,
Absence of peace, allows chaos to be present,
Faith is the antedote for fear,
It may be raining but the sun will eventually appear,
To reap a harvest, love you must sow,
God has greater for you in exchange for letting go! ~ JD
I'm a big fan of the tv drama Chicago Fire that comes on NBC. It shows the daily lives of fire fighters and paramedics as they save lives from burning buildings and other catastrophic incidents.
One particular episode a fireman on the rescue squad was trying to save a man trapped in his car hanging over the ledge of a parking garage 3 stories high. The victim had to let go of the steering wheel and grab hold of the fireman hand in order to be pulled to safety before the vehicle went over the ledge. In this case letting go saved someone's life.
This month marks two years since I started this blog and I thank everyone who takes time out of their day to read it. My hope is that it encourages you and inspires you. Thank you sincerely! Until next time, class dismiss!!!
