There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you:
Let them walk.
I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving
you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to
you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never
tied to anybody that left.
The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest
that they were not for us.
For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us.
[1John 2:19] People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if
they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part
in the story is over And you've got to know when people's part in your story
is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.
You've got to know when it's dead.
You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the
gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye.
It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God
means for me to have He'll give it to me.
And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it.
Stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never
intended for your life, then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ......
LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth.....
LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you ........
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge......

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents
LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude.......

If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in
Him......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help
themselves.....
LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed .........
LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself
and God is saying "take your hands off of it,"
then you need to.....
LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new
thing for 2007!!!
LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then .
LET IT GO!!!

This a wonderful reminder for those of us who sometimes forget! Thank you for sharing with us.
I read your past couple of posts as well. It must be hard to be in college and pretty much penniless and unmotivated but maybe if you remind yourself of the "opportunity" you are able to enjoy by actually being in college, it may be a motivational factor for you.
The other thought I will try to encourage you with is this....once college is over, and, if you know in your heart that you didn't dig into your studies the way you could/should have, you WILL live with that regret. Regret is a painful thing. One day you will look back and think it was the silliest thing to not have gone to class and to not have studied with a zest and a zeal and gotten the utmost out of college that you could have.
You probably didn't want to hear that, but trust me, I know about regret and it burns the heart muscle over and over again.
You have such a wonderful opportunity at the moment. The rest of your life, especially your work life, will be shaped around how well you have done while in college. Go for the gusto, those days when you don't want to go to class remind yourself of the regret you don't want to live with later in life. I think that should help a lot. :)
I hope I haven't said anything out of line. It is something I would have said to either of my kids and probably have on a different subject.
