(The truth about forever)
I haven't always been good at letting certain things go. And I'm not talking about hoarding negative emotions and bad experiences . I struggled to let go of a good season when God said the time was up. I was afraid that there wasn't better for me out there. I had a habit of my really relying on people and giving them things that I should of gave to God for him to handle. God had to teach me that I should only hold him that closely. I had to learn how to transition in different seasons.And in every season and transition HE was faithful.God is eternity.
God gives us things and people for only a season sometimes.When that job or person time is up we tend to mourn.
Everything in our life is borrowed. God lends us people. We don't even belong to our parents. Their temporally in charge of us. God gives them the responsibility to raise us in the way that he allows us to be raised.
Your parents don't support what GOD is telling you to do? Ok say "thanks for your opinion. Love you." And you go back to your heavenly fathers business. Because at the end of the day he's the only approval we need.We are children of the almighty king. He's the only guaranteed thing in our lives. His love is the promise that can't be broken. His way is the right way.He's the only faithful thing in every season. the only thing without a time limit because he created time.
We tend to carry old things that expired into our new season. Then we tell god " lord I'm feeling heavy, over worked, tired and burdened." Duh!!! That's because your carrying things that we don't need in that season. That's like you carrying your winter coat in the summer. Yes the winter coat was a blessing. It kept you warm. It protected you from the rain. It allowed you to move and go out in the winter. But now it's summer. You no longer need it. God promised you that you will make it through not the coat.
Let go of old things that are holding you back. Don't cry on a shut door that God put chains on. If you lift your head you can see God standing in front of an open door waiting for you to walk through. It's not healthy to clutch on to people or things. When we refuse to let things go we're refusing to trust God. The things, dreams and people you love are the safest in God's hand. Why wouldn't you want the one you love the most to be in charge of the things you love? God is Lord! He is the boss! Surrender everything to him and allow him to do whatever he wants to do with it! And trust that whatever he does is for your best interest!
Eternity lies in ONLY his hands. Not your husbands hand, not your parents hands, not your best friends hands.You can't put forever on anything but Gods love. Let it go.
