Watch "Let Them Walk - Bishop T.D. Jakes" on YouTube
My destiny is not tied to any former relationship of any sorts if they chose to walk out of my life. Not mine and not the lives of my children!
I cannot control the actions of others. I cannot control the way that they made me feel. For that matter, I cannot control the way that it made them feel. I can only control how I choose to deal with them walking away. I can control how I let it affect future decisions, I can't let it control how I respond to people in my future, I can even let it control who I choose to let into my life.
What I will not let it control, is my capability to return the love that someone is willing to show me.
When someone opens their heart to you, when they trust you with their secrets and dreams, when they instill their hope into the words that escape from your lips, show that person the person that you are capable of being. Let yourself experience the fact that no two souls are the same. Show yourself that you are strong enough to step forward with your life.
Letting someone allow you to do any less than that weakens the spirit and allows life to accomplish the task of kicking you down.
You are stronger than the baggage that you carry, and you don't feel that way, maybe it is time for you to start unpacking.
