Let it Go

[Chad]

Let it go for 2008..
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. You don't need to sooth people to being with you. Especially if they walk away from you. Leaving you when you most need, desire or love them.

When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny, love and desires are never tied to anybody that left you.

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 in your life 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, to love you, to help you.

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!!!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship, a relationship gonna soar......................

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 for 2008!!!

LET IT GO!!!

Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then .

LET IT GO!!!

"The Battle is the Lord's!"

WOW Chad brother

I had this via email not long ago and was posting it on other sites and going to post it here and I saw the title and you beat me to it. I was not sure where to post it either. I thought it was so good that it needed to be shared on the net with others.

God bless

Dear Brother In Christ,
This has been an issue in my life for 30 years. Rejection is something I've just never been able to deal with; because my father rejected me from the time he knew I existed in my mother's womb. To me, anyone's rejection meant that my father was right--that I should never have existed in the first place & that I should go hide somewhere. I actually did hide at times, coming in only for meals & bedtimes. Daddy expected me to be as invisible & inaudible as possible & to have nothing than the basic needs of food, shelter & clothing. Anything else was moaned & groaned over & deeply resented. As a mother of 3, I still don't know how he could treat his own daughter that way. But he did.

I'm still dealing with how he treated me & he's been dead for 19 years, this month. Now my son is dealing with a divorce he didn't want. She basically left him for another man, though that's not what she says. Their son was just a couple months old when she began not coming home nights.

If I can figure out how to e-mail this to my son, I'm going to do so. He needs it as much as I do.

Thank you so much for passing this on. It's just what I needed to hear tonight.

Praise the Lord that you joined TJ., Goldie Grace, and found this precious Sermon by T.D. Jakes. It is a wonderful Christmas gift, isn't it?

The very first sentence began my tears. It has been over a year that my son decided that I sound "just like one of those church people," and quit talking to me (no, I didn't "push" anything). Needless to say, that hurts. His "father" left me with the 3 children (split from his mother, too). Like "father," like "son." I experience many emotions.

These words bring strength. My mind questioned, "Even if it is my son?" Yes.

This lesson for you, me, and everyone else past, present, and future, is one of the most important lessons that you could ever dream of learning in your life here in God's waiting room. Way too many people hold on tight to too many things they shouldn't, and they need to read it. Then there are those whose lives have been crushed. We all need the strength. Thank you, Chad.

I can read this every year, I used this sermon for 2007.
It was a blessing the first time I received it and I still enjoy it today.
