Breaking Free After A BreakupExemplo

Letting It All Go. 

We’ve heard it a million times, “let go, and let God”. If only this was as easy to do, as it is to say! As difficult as this process is, it is needed for healing to take place. Letting go can look differently depending on the situation. It can be letting go of the hope of rekindling a fire that God was not a part of starting, it can be letting go of the weight of disappointment by forgiving the person who hurt you, or it can be letting go of the mindset that convinces you that you don’t deserve love and should just settle if you plan on ever being in a relationship again. 

Letting go is painful because it causes you to step into the unknown again, leaving behind what was familiar and comfortable. But, if you want God to breathe life into your love life, you have to let go of the pen that you’re holding and allow God to write your Love Story. Let go of the plans that you two made together, the plans for your future, plans for your wedding. Write them all down, and tell God you’re letting them go and trading them in for His best. When God interrupts your life, He’s not ruining your life, He’s actually stopping you from ruining it for yourself. But He won't force you into anything. You can choose to go back and dwell in a dead relationship or you can let go and be still. 

To let go sounds dreadful, but tis a privilege to be able to do so. Have faith that when God created you, He had a plan for your entire life, including your love life. Don’t forget that relationship and marriage are God’s ideas. He knows the desires of your heart, and if He did not forget to create you then He won't forget about His plans for your life. That’s your Dad, and He wants you to be happy.
