Let it go for 2006...


Let it go for 2006....

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.

When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.

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 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.
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.......
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 2006!!!

LET IT GO!!!

Get Right or Get Left
.. think about it, and then ....
LET IT GO!!!

Gods Healing Oil


It happens every summer that more and more of my friends are getting married, I believe this summer I have the most weddings that I have been invited to, then I have ever gone to. Crazy eh? well I am happy for them and wish them the best in their new season of their life.
But with every wedding that comes around, so do the same old feelings of loneliness and thoughts of “when will it be my turn” syndrome. Some of you single girls know what I am talking about. I long to be held in the arms of my beloved and told that I am loved. But I do also know that I am not in that season of my life yet and that there is a lot of healing and working to do in my life yet.
Oh how I long for Gods healing oil to pour over me, you see my last and only relationship that I have been in was not a healthy one, I was blinded to a lot of things that when I did finally see them, I pushed it out of the way and didn’t look at those issues. Oh how I wish things could have been different that I could re-write that season of my life, but now I am only left with learning my lesson and pressing on, and working on the complete healing from that relationship, I gave my heart and everything I had into that relationship and all it brought was pain and wounds in the emotional and spiritual part of my life. I have been on the healing road for some time now, and boy is it a hard at times. To be able to forgive someone who has played a part in cutting you so deeply is hard at times. But the cool thing is that every time this guy comes to mind and all the pain and anger I feel, I pray for him, I pray blessings on him and that he will grow in Christ, I speak life to him. This is the only way I have been and will be able to forgive him.

I still hurt at times, my heart feels the twinge of pain shoot through me, not because of him or of that relationship but because I have feelings of being alone and unloved by anyone. Now for those of you who are seeing red flags, I know I am not alone that I have the best man I will ever need… AKA my Lord. I know that I am nothing with out God but I still feel the longing to be connected with the man that will be my husband. Its weird I know, but its also just feelings that I work through.

I know God has me in this season of singleness and its good for me, I need to heal and I need to work on me allowing God to make me into the women He’s created me to be and to gain experience so I can run a household and be a good wife.

I want to scream


I am so frustrated with how church is becoming.
In talking with other people I am not alone in feeling like Church is dead and dry... and these people don’t even go to my church, they have their own church which they feel the same about. Gosh like I go to Bible College for 8 months and it feels like my home church is worse off then when I left. But I am thinking its just because I had real alive church at school and at my church in Moose Jaw. I just want to scream, pull out my hair, throw something and hit something and then cry about it. My heart is breaking over this. And yes I know the Christian answer to PRAY. But guess what. Others and myself have been praying for years, and church is seemingly getting deader and deader and full of everything else but God.
AHHHHH Why do I feel like this, it sucks, I hate it, how can I stop feeling so angery and start feeling compassion for the church???



God, help me to see your people through your eyes, to have compassion for them, to encourage them. Help me Lord to live my life with the passion that I have for you. Give me the strength to continue on and to support my pastors and leadership of my Church to cover them with prayers and encouragement. God open the churches eyes of Canada that they may see you and come to you, that they will seek your face and long for you.
