Letting Go

One of My sorors FWD this to me the other day. It's funny how some message come just in time. I didn't get this email last week or last month I got it when I needed it. No I'm not in the process of letting go of anyone, but I am letting go of baggage...enjoy!

This is an awesome message

By T.. D. Jakes

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 made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 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 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 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! u 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!!!

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!!!

'The Battle is the Lord's!'

During the next 60 seconds, Stop whatever you are doing, and take this opportunity...

(Literally it is only ONE minute!)

All you have to do is the following:

You simply say 'The Lords Prayer' for the person that sent you this message:

The Lords Prayer

Our Father, who are in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory, forever.

Amen.


Stop and think and appreciate God's power in your life, for doing what you know is pleasing to Him.

Pass this on if you feel inclined to!


If you are not ashamed to do this, follow the instructions!

Jesus said, If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before My Father'


'Yes, I love my God. He is my fountain of Life and My Savior.

He Keeps me going day and night.. Without Him, I am no one. But with Him, I can do everything, Christ is my strength.' This is a simple test.

If you love God and you are not ashamed of all the great things that He has done for you, send this to everyone you know.

God loves you and watches over you everyday

great message! but shouldn't you be letting go of someone??? I follow you on twitter and I get that you are often unhappy with your "situation" so why do you stay in it? better yet why do you allow yourself to be in a "situation" in the first place? thats unattractive and lacks all security, no type of man wants a woman like that. You let a man give and take your happiness. It reflects on twitter that you are holding on to something that IS NOT YOURS or meant for you. Yo can go back to your ex for that. Knowing the information that you know "BKnown" why do you do that to yourself. Being a real man I know that men only can do what ya'll allow us to do. and that guy that you are involved with have the "situation" wrapped around his fingers. Every time I see your tweets my heart goes out to you and I almost unfollowed you. I also blame your sorrors unless they tell you the right thing and you just don't listen. You should holla at the bruhs about your situation they will tell you the truth. There is no such thing of a main chick and a side chick when it comes to a real man yall are all the same yall just believe there is a special one. If there are side chicks then the main chick is a side chick too. He is used you and not that into you. how long have you been in the A? how many times have he spent time with you since you been there? how many times have you had lonely nights since you been there? he lives there and you live in LV so now you in his state and its just like you at home. He giving you all the signs that he is just not that into you and letting you go, but YOU are choosing to hold on. he already let you go so let him go. Come on now B you gotta be smarter. Lose that Loser. Sorry to put you out like that but maybe thats what you needed to wake up. by the way I would have kept it to myself but I think a lot people want to tell you the same thing but don't have the heart to. all love though all love

why are you trippin' so hard about it? what I said was true. I could have gone into detail but chose not to. I was not going in on you, you have already done that to yourself. you could always delete my comment. and B you taking a break from twitter is not deleting your "situation", twitter is not the problem. dont stop tweeting because of me. Does it bother you that someone spoke the truth? or is it that someone spoke UNWELCOMING truth? my comment was not meant to harm you sweets. it was meant to wake you up. but if you wont listen to people that know and love you and that have more than likely kept it real with you, then why would you listen to me. I say that because its very hard for me to believe that your sorrors have led you to believe that your "situation" is okay. sorry for offending you and speaking the truth. I think I should just let your twitter and blog go. please dont view me as a ass whole, but if you do thats cool to, most realest are titled as such.

Okay so a couple things.

1. I respect your comments and I am very self-aware individual and not ALL the things in regards to relationships are reflections of what I am experiencing

2. Sometimes the most difficult advice to take is my own. I blog about things that I think will help not only myself, but other people. Yes I know I need to take some of my own advice.

3. All the details of my "situation" are not public knowledge. To be honest no I don't have a BF I am dating someone and to my understanding it's an exclusive situation and until that's proven otherwise then that's how I have to treat it.

4. I'm not stupid and if you know me as well as you seem to, you should know that I am a very well rounded and a giving individual with a big heart and have to figure things out on my own regardless of what other people tell me.

In closing I appreciate all my friends and people who truly love me...all my sorors aren't privy to what goes on in my personal life and the ones that are give their input. I am a strong, beautiful, intelligent human being that has feelings for someone and I'm just trying to figure it out you have def made me realize that people are actually paying attention.
Thanks for the feedback....Who is this anyway?
BTW he is a very good person we are just in the test drive stages and figuring out if a purchase should be made....the side piece comments were me being funny.

AphiATres said...

you have been test driving long enough to know that its not the car you should be purchasing but okay. you basically said that you are going to continue to "exclusively date" him even though you know you shouldn't. you don't have to convince me that he's a good person I didn't say that he's a bad person.

" I am a strong, beautiful, intelligent human being that has feelings for someone and I'm just trying to figure it out you have def made me realize that people are actually paying attention."

is that your way of saying that you are just a in love with a man and not to judge you? and that you don't want to let go even though things are clear to you? and why do you care that people are actually paying attention. you "figuring out" something that you by the way already know has nothing to do with people actually paying attention. B I'm just going to let this go because I'm getting pulled in lol and I hate to see our young black women put themselves through this and then try to take up for guy and be little the situation at hand thats how you subjected yourself to the situation in the first place smh. true, every "relationship" have problems and takes hard work etc but some stuff you should not go through and its very obvious that you go through some straight up BS and you find a way to rationalize the situation because you don't want to let go even though he has already let you go. Do you not see or can you not feel that he has let you go? its okay to let go

Missbrandy said...

I TRULY appreciate your feedback really I do. I love to inspire conversation. You def are right. Thank you for your feedback...but like seriously who is this?

AphiATres said...

lol I like the way you put that but naw, I'm good. If I reveal myself to you then I would have to invest in making you a better person and you not ready for that so we'll just keep it as it is. I just relocated your way last week. so if you ever get to the point where you ready to stop subjecting yourself to BS then maybe we could hang out. but I'm pleased that you accepted my opinion. I'm going to keep you in my prayers though because I really don't like to see women go through this.
