Letting Go
"I let go of everything and everybody that is no longer part of God's plan for me. I forgive and move forward with the light of God guiding me. I release negativity. I have all the energy I need to live my life's purpose. I have all the energy I need for myself and my family."
I wrote this quote down years ... maybe even, decades ... ago. It's part of a series called "Mirror God." That may sound pretentious, but it fits with my life purpose. As you may know, many years ago I asked God to show me my life purpose. What I saw was a lighthouse. A lighthouse is most important when it's storming. It shines a light to guide and stays steady. A lighthouse does not go out into the sea, pick up the ships and bring them back to the shore. It shines a light.
Being willing to let go of things that are not God's plan has been costly. I've let go of everything from Real Housewives to Catholicism. I need to focus more on choosing to be happy and, if God's grace permits, holy. If I do so mindfully, I will have the energy I need.
