Yes, I know it's Thursday, but this is how we do it lol
This Motivational Monday comes from Iyanla Vanzant's book, Acts of Faith, Daily Meditations for People of Color.
On July 16 and July 17 she talks about reasons and seasons. I'll talk about reasons today and seasons on the next motivational monday.
She says....
"A reason...When someone is in your life for a reason, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are. they are there for the reason you need them to be. Then without wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. the prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on. Next! -When a prayer is answered, there is no need to cry."
Hopefully her words have motivated you to look at those "losses" as blessings and move on with your life. I cant remember where I heard this from but, "A candle does not burn forever."
