Sometimes you have to learn through pain........

Good afternoon,

I want you to try something…..

Ball your hands up really tight. Do you feel the tension in your hands and forearm? Do you know that if you continue to hold that position that the tension will spread through the rest of your body? If held too long it will start to wear on your nerves. You will eventually become very uncomfortable and tired of holding this position. Now open your hands. You should immediately feel the release of that tension and a relief to your hands. When you hold on to your worries and fears you are actually inflicting pain and adding tension to your life. No one told you that you had to hold on to the things that are wearing on your life. IT’S YOU. I know that you feel that you worry because you don’t know what life will toss your way…..but you have to realize that GOD created you. You are already built for whatever comes your way. You just have to keep moving. Keep standing in Faith. You say you have Faith but you don’t use it. You are not demonstrating that you have Faith to get you through the storm. When something happens, take a moment to step back and turn up your Faith! Life happens and it’s how you handle it that makes you great! Remind yourself of all that you have ALREADY endured and make that your motivation to believe that you will be able to weather any future storms.

Please know that if you let go it doesn’t mean that you don’t care or you are weak. It means that you are strong enough to Walk by Faith and not by Sight. It means that you no longer desire to have unnecessary tension in your life.

There is a quote that says, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way…the choice is yours”….. This is how GOD works. He will put things in your life so that you can maneuver through life a little easier. If you choose to ignore them then obviously you are choosing the hard way and GOD will put it in your life if it will help you to get you were you are supposed to be. Be strong enough to “Let go and Let GOD”…….THE FIRST TIME!

I hope that you have decided today to make your life easier by opening your hands……

MAKE IT GREAT!
