God often removes people from your life for a reason so be so careful before you try to chase them down to return! God is about purpose and sometimes in developing you, you will find that those things that used to bring you joy may be replaced with other things. This does not mean that you are better than the other person, it simply means your development and progress has been re-aligned and the two of you are not compatible.
Loss is an inevitiable process to life and as sure as we gain, we must lose, as we catch things in life ,we must release. This uncomfortable feeling can and will create heartburn and feelings of uncertainty but be assured that you are excelling into becoming your best self.
Attachments are so beautiful when they enter our lives. Like our finest accessory, attachments can be added to accentuate our life in many ways where dullness once existed. It may be that before going to Starbucks on a regular, you found yourself waking up to Quick Trip coffee, and wanted to spice up your life, or you began shopping excessively at the Gap because you wanted to rock the latest fashion and could not afford it. To the human side, maybe you were so completely in love with Pooky but Pooky did not treat you right so you took some time off from him and now he is trying to come back onto the scene.
As a result, now Pooky calls you day in and day out wanting to arrange a time to see you and wondering how you’d feel about his recent attachments which includes an addiction to people pleasing which causes him to spend his money and yours buying the jacket of the week or maybe he wants to showcase you at his work party but he has already told you he does not want to commit but wants you to just go with the flow. Let’s pause here.
No wait…..does that mean you’d be a spare this time?
So if you are in the waiting room of life and you find yoursef wondering if that love, life, person, or thing will suddenly explode onto the scene and have you all pick up where you left off, know that this may never happen and you should finally breathe and get used to your new and fresh life.
- Ask God to give you a new perspective and to clarify yourself in the truth of His word so that you can clearly see.
- Don’t rely on your feelings to make the difference in your life because feelings are fickle and they lie.
- Appreciate the time that you had with that thing or person and ask God to come in and fill the void of your worth and value with Himself
- Let God love on you and allow you to grow and rise above the hurt that you may be feeling with having loss the attachments in you life.
God loves you to pieces and He wants the very best for you. You may have a heart ache for a few minutes, but be courageous and walk into all that God has for you!
He loves you immensely,
