Day 2206: Letting Go and Letting God

Let go and let God – that’s what I’m trying to do.

It’s 9 : 11 AM on day 2206 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read 1 Peter 4:8, and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign –raised $7 675 only $4 825 more to raise to reach my second goal of raising $12 500 for Smile Train before Jan 10 2017 (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far ).

Recently I’ve been trying extra hard to let go and let God which is harder than one might think even when you do have faith.

Day 1522: Letting go of what is lost

Leave a reply

You can never get back that which is lost all you can do is move forward with what you have – that’s what I realized today.

It’s 12 : 58 PM on day 1522 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Isaiah 9, publish my Disability of the Day feature, stretch my hamstrings, promote my Educate Generations campaign– on $820 – feed myself egg with bread and a banana for breakfast and continue promoting my campaign – still on $820 the easiest way to reach my goal would probably be to appear on a TV show or something but I’m uncomfortable in front of the camera and I’m really not interested in being famous I just want to help educate a few girls who will then go on to educate generations after them thus breaking the cycle of poverty.

Today I realized you can never get back that which is lost all you can do is move forward with what you have I tend to let go of things and want parts of it back but now I know that once I close the door on something I should keep it shut. Do you try to get back that which is lost or move forward with what you have?

Day 1338: Whatever Will Be Will Be

I finally learned to say

Whatever will be will be

I’ve learned to take

The good, the bad and breathe

‘Cause although we like

To know what life’s got planned

No one knows if shooting stars will land

Vanessa Hudgens, “Whatever Will Be”

It’s 12 : 00 PM on day 1338 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Psalm 25, publish my Disability of the Day feature, feed myself boiled egg and bran flakes for breakfast, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles, stretch my hamstrings and promote my Eradicate AIDS campaign – still on 80% so far today.

Yesterday I was struggling with something until I adopted a whatever-will-be-will-be attitude I figured I had no control over what was going to happen anyway so why bother stressing about it. Are you stressing about things that are out of your control or have you adopted a whatever-will-be-will-be attitude?

Day 1273: Relinquishing the control I know I don’t have

All you can do is all you can do you can’t make people say what they don’t want to say or do what they don’t want to do – that’s what I keep realizing.

It’s 1 : 25 PM on day 1273 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Job 7, go to church – the sermon was titled “Temptation” the reverend said something I’ll never forget he said the devil tempts to ruin; God tests to triumph I hope I remember that the next time I’m tempted to do something even a little bit wrong – publish my Disability of the Day feature, publish my Kid of the Week feature, feed myself All Bran Flakes for breakfast, promote my Eradicate AIDS campaign – Dawn O’Brien donated £23 today (thank you SO MUCH Dawn) which brings my total raised to $414.20 (thank you God I KNOW you were working through Dawn to answer my prayers I REALLY appreciate it).

This morning I realized yet again that all you can do is all you can do you can’t make people say what they don’t want to say or do what they don’t want to do. Do you try to make people do what you want them to do knowing the only person you control is you?
