Holding on to something is like believing that there’s only a past; LETTING GO and MOVING ON is knowing in your heart there’s a bright future ahead. A few ways to help us LET GO are: ACCEPT THE TRUTH AND BE THANKFUL: • To LET GO is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry and helped you learn and grow. It’s the acceptance of everything you have, everything you once had and the possibilities that lie ahead. It’s all about finding the strength to embrace life’s changes, to trust your intuition and to learn as you go. To realize that every experience has value, and to continue taking positive steps forward. GOOD TO REMEMBER: • God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Live one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. Taking, as God did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that God will make all things right, if I surrender to His Will. That I may be reasonably happy in this life, and supremely happy with Him forever in the next. FOCUS ONLY ON WHAT CAN BE CHANGED: • Realize that not everything in life is meant to be modified or perfectly understood. Live, LET GO, and learn what you can and don’t waste energy worrying about the things you can’t change. If you can’t change something you don’t like, change the way you think about it. Review your options and then re-frame what you don’t like into a starting point for achieving something better. TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR MIND: • Your mind affects your attitude and influences your actions. Think positive about people, and think positive about yourself. Our lives and our actions are a record of who we are. Don’t let your mind be disturbed, surrender your mind to God. Don’t be disturbed by the motives and actions of others. You cannot control others, but you can control your actions and your thoughts. You can stop reliving hurt and choose to move on. You have this power. You just need to learn how to exercise it. God gives us all power. WE ARE OVER COMMERS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS US. • PHILIPPIANS 4:8 – Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. FOCUS INWARD: • It’s important to make a difference in the world. It’s important to help people, but you have to start with yourself. If you’re looking outside yourself to find where you fit in or how you can create an impact, stop and look inside yourself instead. Review how you already are, the lifestyle you’re currently living, and what makes you feel alive. Then mature these things and make positive adjustments until your current life can no longer contain them, forcing you to grow and move beyond your current circumstances. CHANGE THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU: • Some people come in to your life just to strengthen you, so you can move on without them. They are supposed to be a part of your memory, not your destiny. When you have to start compromising your happiness and your potential for the people around you, it’s time to change the people you have around you. Don’t let people change you. BE CHRIST LIKE. WE ARE TO BE EXAMPLES OF GOD. LET GOD LEAD US, PRAY AND STAY FOCUSSED ON GOD AND THE MINDSET OF GOD. That will help us LET GO of people we do not need to be around. TAKE A CHANCE: • When life sets you up for a challenge, there’s a reason for it; it’s meant to test your courage and willingness to make a change and take a chance on something new. There’s no point in denying that things are different now, or being fearful of the next step. The challenge will not wait if you hesitate. Life only moves in one direction and that is forward. This challenge is your chance to LET GO of the old and make way for the new. Your destiny awaits your decision. God has a plan for us, but we have got to step out in the right direction and take it. We have to seek him and let him help us with it all. God will lead us and guide us in everything, all we have to do is let him. Sometimes we make a mess of our life, simply by not taking a chance on LETTING GO AND LETTING GOD WORK THINGS OUT AND HELPING US THROUGH THINGS. FOCUS ON TODAY: • You can decide right now that negative experiences from your past will not predict your future. Figure out what the next positive step is, no matter how small or difficult, and take it. Ultimately the only thing you can ever really do is to keep moving forward. Take that leap without hesitation, without looking back. Simply forget the past, look straight ahead and press toward the future. OUR FUTURE IS WITH GOD!!!
