Learning to Let Go: Are You Making Things Bigger Than They Are?

We often won’t admit it, but we are responsible for how we react to situations, and many times we take something so small, something that can be resolved through communication or other tools, and make it a big problem to the point where you are constantly replaying it in your mind. A lot of our problems and disagreements with others can be solved with appropriate communication. Certain problems do have a solution, and you may just be the person who has to come up with the solutions. Certain things will happen in your life, and it’s okay, remember life is an experience.

 If you are faced with a situation where you cannot communicate effectively, you feel like you should have the last word, you feel you were not treated fairly or you find yourself nagging at an issue, and it is tormenting you in your mind, I am asking you to let it go and give it to God. Let God have that battle, Exodus 14:14 says “God will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace (be still).” There is no reason to keep replaying issues that weren’t solved, or solved your way, or issues you encounter in your mind over and over again. You are tormenting your own self at that point, let it go, forgive, let God handle it, and move on. You are going to make yourself spiritually and physically sick if you don’t learn to just let things go. It’s not worth your peace, your joy, or your mind. May you have peace in your heart and mind.
