Some days, I look at the situations in my life, and I wonder “why me?”. I oftentimes, say to myself, “this can’t be my life“. Then, God quickly reminds me, that all of this bs is necessary for my process.
Every set back…closed door…rejection…loss…NO…tear…heartbreak…struggle…it’s all for a purpose. Without these uncomfortable challenges, I’d never experience the joys that are wrapped in my blessings.
On days like today, I welcome the challenges that stare me in the face. As each day unfolds, I am realizing, that in order to successfullly continue through my transition, I must allow God to release my baggage 🧳. I have too much weighing me down. There is too much baggage preventing me from reaching my purpose. Just like my luggage 🧳 for my trips, and the personal belongings I carry from day to day, I am unable to navigate swiftly with all of the baggage I am carrying.
Discernment has made me realize that God isn’t necessarily attempting to release my baggage in the physical sense. He is bringing me to a place in my transition, to release the people who are dead weight in my life. He knows that some are spectators, some are leeches, some are energy vampires, and many more are opportunists. As I shed this extra weight, my circle not only becomes smaller, it becomes more cohesive and peaceful, and the path becomes clearer.
Who would have thought that being in transition would make my vision clearer? My homelessness has opened my eyes to whom and what needs to be removed from my bag of useless items. The transitional state that I am currently in, has allowed me to discern the people who I am still attempting to help…assist…love, and remain in my life as I embark on a new journey, and experience what God is preparing for me.
Certain conversations, experiences, and yes, even hurts, continue to reveal the baggage that continues to weigh me down. As I manage to detach from every THING, and person, who weighs me down, I feel a sense of relief in knowing that my bags 🎒 are getting lighter.
Rather than call me BAG LADY, call me FREE..WOMAN OF PEACE…SURVIVOR. As I continue to release more obstacles from my life, I see the transitions taking place faster. I see the trajectory of my life changing. It appears to me, that simply by no longer being a BAG LADY, I can further transform, by unpacking my extra baggage, and allowing myself to move with only me and God.
Like Erikah Baduh said” Bag Lady, you gone miss your bus. You can’t hurry up, you’ve got too much stuff“.
I’m not missing anything else that God has for me, due to being weighed down from unnecessary ‘stuff‘. Sometimes, we have to let people go. This includes family, friends, and mates. Collectively, we can no longer allow others to hold us down or prevent us from where God is leading us to. On this beautiful Hump Day, let go of the baggage 🧳. Free yourself from the extra weight that’s holding you down. God is calling you to your purpose. Don’t miss it by holding on to too much ‘stuff‘.
