Holding On

Well, once again, it has been a few days. And, once again, I have been rather busy. I have noticed that the busier I get, the busier I get. However, I will eventually figure out the rhythm and get into the groove again. In the mean time, allow me to say that I am still working on being more usable to GOD.

I have had the opportunity lately to discuss how we hold onto things with a couple of folks. We seem to have the tendency to hold onto things that we cannot do anything about. I think we would all agree that we would all be better off and more fulfilled if we would just let go of those things that we can't change and are pulling us down.

Today's word is a quote from T. D. Jakes, which says, "We cannot embrace GOD'S forgiveness if we are so busy clinging to past wounds and nursing old grudges."

I realize that Mary Better-than-thou did something to you twenty-five years ago that you cannot get over. Ain't nobody blaming you for not forgiving Mary. BUT, you are never going to experience true forgiveness until you learn to forgive. Yes, it is easier said than done but it is still an absolute necessity.

Yes, Dean Did-it-again did you wrong, and you should never allow him to do you wrong again. But, don't allow Dean to continue stealing your joy and your sunshine. The only way you will ever get over past hurts is to forgive and move on; it is only then that we can experience true forgiveness and peace.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
