Letting go
It's been a while, but I'm back and I'm better *Bryson Tiller voice* lool.
I've been meaning to post this for a while , and now I'm finally doing it *yay*.
In life sometimes we just don't know when to let things go, whether it's relationships or grudges. We just seem to hold on for dear life, and some times it's just unnecessary.
Don't dwell on things for too long, sometimes you just need to let things go. Keep it moving!
Whatever it is that's bothering you, it's not permanent. Nothing is permanent these days anyways, everything is temporary.
Whatever problems you have, let go and let God deal with it. What do you gain from holding on? You don't know what blessings and opportunities that you are blocking, just because it's always less challenging when you have that little something to hold on to. I think sometimes, it's just comforting, it gives us a reason to act a certain way when in reality, we stunt our growth, we end up pushing others away and we miss out on life because we want to be "comfortable".
Letting go does not equate to failure or giving up. In fact, it is not a sign of weakness. It is merely liberation and it demonstrates the confidence that you have to step out. Letting go is essentially freedom, freedom from self and freedom from the negative obligations attached to whatever was holding you back. There's always a greater benefit to letting go. You just have to make up your mind to see the potential benefit first.
Sometimes, letting go can be painful especially when it involves releasing friends. A part of you feels as though the memories and the good times are gone, but it's okay. Not everyone was created to be in your life for ever. Some people came into your life for a lesson, to give you an experience (good or bad) and to facilitate your growth and maturity into whatever you were created for. However, when you keep some people in your life, far longer than needed, they become toxic. For example, it's like a women being pregnant for 40 weeks, it becomes toxic and unsafe the longer the baby stays past the due date. You may argue that a few weeks isn't that bad, but the longer the baby stays, the more complicated the birthing gets. Fine, some people don't get to choose when the baby comes out, but can you say no to the Dr. that has recommended a set date and time for the caesarian? The same applies to toxic friendships and relations, don't let them over stay their time in your life. Learn to let go when the time goes. Not only will it create more room for healthier friendships and relationships to blossom, but you'll gain happiness and become more positive. Positivity is good for the mind and the soul.
Let go of those petty grudges ,it's easier said than done, but we all need to learn to move on, and sometimes, the only way to do so is to invite God in.
Let go, and let God.
The choice is yours, so what's it going to be? Will you hold on or let go?
I'd like to finish off by sharing a song that best sums this up :)

My Bible challenge for 2016
Happy new year everyone, I hope that you're all having a positive start to the year so far.
I just wanted to share the Bible challenge that I've set for myself this year. I think that reading the Bible is very important for someone who wants to develop their faith further, hence why one of my new years resolutions is to read the Bible more often. The details of my Bible challenge can be found below.Throughout the year, I may write blog posts to provide an update about how my Bible challenge is going.
I would like to encourage anyone who is trying to develop in their faith to set themselves a personal Bible challenge for the year, or use the Bible app to find a Bible challenge. I think it would be an amazing step to take, so definitely try it out.
