To Receive With Empty Hands

“Sometimes, when you lose, you win.” – WHAT DREAMS MAY COME, The Movie

Happiness sometimes comes not by holding on or by pursuing it so fiercely, but by letting it go.

We let go of our heartaches so we can be healed. We let go of our anger so we can have peace. We let go of our regrets so we can dream again.

We let go of the people who broke our hearts so we can find those who will truly love us.

We let go of our desire to take revenge so we can allow God to give us the justice we deserve.

We let go before we become empty enough to receive.

We are loved most when we finally learn to give love away.

“For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.” – Matthew 16:25, WEB

Are you searching for hope? Download the e-book today - "Where Hope Can Be Found". The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
