Let Go and Let God

This week I came across a quote by Will Smith that really stood out to me. This quote is...

"Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you, and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too."

This stood out to me because lately I have really been working on praying when feelings of judgement and dislike come into my heart. Instead of letting these feelings take over and consume me, I will stop and pray instead. I will pray for God to help me work through these feelings and for Him to make a presence in the hearts of the ones I have these feelings towards as well. I will pray that He work in their hearts to help them establish/build a relationship with Him because I had someone do that for me - and it was the best thing anyone has ever done for me. This shows that the power of prayer is real, that God never disappoints and is always good!

So instead of letting these feelings build up, let go and let God work in the people that have upset you or treated you badly. You won't be able to change what people do or how they treat you, only they can make that decision, but you can pray for God to work in their lives and that will go a lot further than you could ever imagine!

After all, we are all just humans that fall short and could use a little love! And what better way is there to spread love than to use the power of prayer to lead them closer to the best love of all!
