Let Them… & Trust God

Codependent healing and Jesus go hand in hand… who knew?!?! Isaiah 26:3

LET THEM… & TRUST GOD

All my codependents: watch this! It’s such a simple plan and yet, so, so very difficult. I wish I had learned all this when I was young but such is life… I’m working on it now but trust me, it’s a DAILY struggle that sometimes stresses me out to the point of tears just thinking about it. However, the peace that comes with it is something that is immeasurable. I would add, “LET THEM”… “& TRUST JESUS.”

When we as “control freaks” try to control everything and everyone around us for a plethora of reasons: often to gain love, respect, attention or approval, or because we believe “our version” of how things should go is the “right way”: not only are we hurting them and ourselves, but we are also NOT trusting God with our emotions, our reactions, our families and our situations. When we try to control situations, people, etc. we often are obstructing Gods teaching for others. When we try to force a situation into how we think it should be, or try to force another person into behaving like we deem acceptable, how often do we stop and ask “what could God be doing in that persons life that they need to learn for themselves?”

If we will just let go and LET THEM, we are also trusting that Gods perfect plan may be better than our own perception of how we feel like that person should behave, react, act, etc. Maybe, just maybe, God is working on them and we are getting in the way…

What if instead of judging, hating, controlling, trying to create the best outcome… or only looking at our own perception of others and ourselves, what if we let them be them, let me be me, and then just pray for them, love them, and spread Gods love? What if we let them be them and trust Gods plan is in place individually for each separate person for a reason. Not everyone has to live life like we deem is “right”, not everyone persons path is the same, BUT Gods love is the same no matter what for every human on earth… no matter if we agree HOW their life is or if it isn’t like what we think it should be.

Much Love and High Tide,
