“LET IT GO!”

Me-Maw Thoughts

Number 716

December 31, 2024///

In a few hours 2024 will be gone! And whether we are asleep or awake, 2025 will be here!

No matter what 2024 has brought to you, good things or bad, the years move on!

Your year and the holidays may have been the worst ever or maybe they were the best, or a mixture of both!

But you have a new year to be a better you and let the Lord Jesus fill you inside with His peace that nothing else can give!

Regrets, I have some. I have some things I wanted to accomplish but did not, I have some people I wanted to reach out to but did not, but we cannot live in regrets, we need to look forward and ask God to mold us into the image of His Son Jesus!

Seasons change, years change, and people change. But may I remind you of something that never changes!

Hebrews 13:5 B (KJV)

: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

Jesus said he would always be with us and never leave us! Do you feel lonely, you are not alone! Do you feel forgotten, you are not! Do you feel helpless, you are not that either!

You are Loved by the creator God and He will never leave you nor forsake you!

Rest in that promise and lay hold to the truth that you are loved, and you are precious to Him!

As we face the new year, we should take the stand that Paul took in Philippians!

Philippians 3:13–14 (KJV)

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

The Frozen movie tells us to “Let it Go”!

That is what leaving all the regrets, the hurts, and the failures is: LETTING IT GO!

So, I ask you! What do you need to leave behind and let go of!

Is it an attitude of offense or hurt feelings?

Is it failure to be responsible for your family?

Is it being slack on the job?

Slack in church attendance and study of the word and prayer?

Unforgiveness for some who hurt you!

Is it a sense of not being good enough?

How about a feeling of not being loved by God?

Bad attitudes about physical issues?

The list could continue but you know what is hindering you from moving forward with your life!

Relief comes when we truly let it go and release all of it to the lordship of Jesus Christ who loves each of us more than we can comprehend!

So, my encouragement to each of us is to let all that bothers us, hinders us, or stirs up feelings of anger in us go, and trust in the Lord’s love and care!

May we face 2025 knowing that we are enough, and we can do all things through Christ who give us strength!

Knowing that we are the apple of His eye, and He will never leave us nor forsake us!

Snuggle, don’t struggle!

Father, in Jesus’ name I come and ask you to touch each of us deep in our spirits and let us feel your warmth and love! Thank you for helping each of us go forward into 2025, leaving behind all the junk that weighs us down and walking into the new year in Faith and Victory! Amen!

Love, MeMaw
