Let's move forward in life with peace

Many times, we hold on to things that hurt us in life.  This happens because it’s uncomfortable and we feel pain.  Most of the time, it involves others in terms of something we’ve done or something someone else has done to us.   Also, a lot of times we blame others for things that go wrong in our lives.  I’m saying this because I’ve done it and I’m sure you have as well at some point in your life.  It’s really time for us to stop holding grudges and let go of things that are bringing us down.  We all need healing in some area and we can’t heal or serve the Lord if we’re not loving unconditionally or letting go of things that are preventing us from moving forward and having peace.

When we interact with people, it’s our choice in how we respond or act in any given situation.  We have to remember that we can’t expect people to be what we want them to be because they are growing in the name of Jesus just like we are and we all have faults.  When we stay positive and be kind to one another, we help ourselves and in turn that’s helping others because one can see Jesus in us and our light will shine.

It’s very important to let go of grudges or things that hurt us because if we don’t, we will never grow and we will always have issues that will affect our direction in life.  Our lives will be on a pause and we will wonder why things are not progressing.  Letting go of things help all of us because it shows love, it shows forgiveness, it shows kindness as well as mercy.  Let’s not get caught up on things that are not important but prepare ourselves for peace.

If we all take accountability for what we do and don’t’ do, we can see our faults prior to seeing the fault in others.  We’re not perfect but we’re here to grow and get closer to God.  It’s all about love and when we live it, we teach it and when we teach it, we all grow and when we grow, we change the world by giving hope that changes lives.
​
Let’s not let anything stop us from moving in the right direction and gaining peace but let’s work towards enjoying the remaining days that we have on this earth by God.  Tomorrow is not promised so let’s treat today as the last day and do it with love, integrity and respect.
 
Amen and Thank you Lord.
