Holding On

At the beginning of the summer, I was working late and night and God brought back to my remembrance ( it had to be Him cuz there was no way I could've thought of this) this story I heard of raccons.

Basically to trap a racoon, you put some silver in the trap and it'll hold on and won't let go..eventually starving itself. All it has to do is to let go and get free but it's so fixated on the silver, it'll continue to hold on, stunting its ability to do more, to grow, to get to next level. And leads to its death.

God told me that I'm basically that raccoon at times.

That I'm holding on to a couple of things that have me chained and trapped but because they are shiny and look good, it's hard for me to let go. But it wasn't all doom and gloom, because He also said that if I let go then I am free to get blessings greater than that which I'm holding on to.

Fam, Whatever you're holding on to, just let go. That easy. And Watch God move.

(I'm working on this myself.)
