People always say you can’t really
explain why you feel a certain way about someone. Why you click with some
people more than others or why you suddenly feel connected to a stranger. I
feel like God brings us closer to certain people we need in our lives right
now. These are the people who will either teach us important lessons about life
or about ourselves.
There’s a reason why God moves your
heart toward a specific person and a reason why you get attached to certain
people more than others. When I look back, there’s not one person I got really
attached to who didn’t have something valuable to teach me or didn’t play a
major role in my life. And the irony is, most of these people were temporary
because their duty was to show me a different way and then set me free.
Sometimes the stage of your life
determines what kind of people you attract of faith, God sends you the people
you need at exactly the right time. He gives you the answers you were looking
for through these people. He enlightens you by bringing you closer to people
who bring out the best in you. He helps you when you’re struggling by pulling
you closer to those who are capable of digging you out of your darkness.
It’s just that sometimes we try to
turn these temporary people into forever people but that’s not their role.
They’re not meant to stay in our lives forever. God called them to be there for
us for only a short period of time. God called to be in our lives so they can
make us better for the ones who are meant to stay forever.
The problem is we become frustrated
when these people leave because we can’t let go. We don’t understand why God
would take away something so beautiful or someone who healed us but if you look
at it from the perspective that if these people overstayed their welcome, their
beauty will fade away, their love will die, their story will not be inspiring
anymore and they will turn into a burden were not meant to carry, it will all
start making sense.
The essence of letting go is faith.
Faith that this story is better left the way it is. It’s better left the way
God wrote it. Maybe rewriting it will ruin the story. Maybe changing it will
not give you a happy ending. Maybe these people are angels sent to you to teach
you a lesson or heal you or make you a better person and when their time is up,
they fly away. They’re meant to be placed in someone else’s life.
Maybe these people are also teaching
you how to let go, how to detach, how to realize when someone’s part in your
story is over and have faith that the next person God brings you closer to is
exactly who you need, even if you don’t know it yet.
Because I know that the day we meet
the person who is meant to stay forever, we’d be able to spot them from a mile
away, we’d recognize them in a crowded room because we finally understand the
difference between someone who touches our hand and someone who touches our
soul.
