Ever tried to accomplish a chore and you felt like something was holding you back? You tried to move but couldn't get anywhere? If it is a physical endeavor it sometimes means finding the obstacle and then working to remove it or get around it. If it is a relationship we call it cutting the ropes. The ties. The connection. But how you do it is most important no matter which analogy.
Sometimes God places immovable objects in our way to prevent us from getting into danger, slow us down or stop us all together. When it is people related, using letters to tell people how you feel work nicely except they allow no feedback or interaction. Letters allow you to speak fully, completely and without interruption. Military are all too familiar with the "Dear John" letters.
Sometimes we just want to get going, let go, move on without having to wait, get sidetracked, argue, discuss, or understand to be understood.
We all have these situations from time to time whether physical or emotional or both. Right now I am praying for Godly insight on just this. I know that I need to address a few individuals, need to explain a few things and then see where it goes. I'm afraid to them, though, it won't matter. Why? Because I don't matter. Never the less it is something to be addressed for my 'broken' journey to continue.
Lord, please help me and my readers when we know the tugging at our heart is Your fingertips. Gently You are touching the wounds and ready to excise the pain, the turmoil, the injured area. When we know You are prodding it is time to confront so in love the healing can take hold. Help guide us. Amen
So as I head up this more steep climb I realize in order to have the strength and stamina to tackle this trail will require doing everything to lighten my load. Being free of encumbrances and weight of sin. Being free to move un-tettered like a hot air balloon ready for lift off. I know You O God are with me. I ask for your divine guidance and the words to speak and the actions to take. I feel the weight in my emotional being and I surrender that all to You. Give me wings to fly and help me let go so I can go on.
