What's holding you back from having the life you'd like to have? Are you open to change? Does everything really have to be perfect?

Do you know that if you were not able to have closure on something that was important to you, that you can make your own closure?

Closure often comes from within. Instead of waiting for someone else to provide it, you have the power to create your own closure by accepting what happened, learning from it, and choosing to move forward. It's about finding peace with the situation and deciding that you're done investing emotional energy into something you can't change. Sometimes, finding peace and joy is about changing what we can, and what we can't, leave the rest up to God. He's got your back.

We have a God who is available to us 24/7 and loves us more than words could ever express. His love is perfect in that way. And perfect love casts out all fear. It's okay to feel stuck or afraid, but know that God's love is bigger than your fears. He's not asking you to take a leap of faith without being with you. He's holding your hand every step of the way. You don't have to have it all figured out. Just take one small step towards Him, and let Him guide you from there. He's faithful and His love for you is unwavering, unconditional, and everlasting. There's never a time when he's not thinking of what he can do to help you improve your life, so that you'll be happy. He always has your best interest at heart. Our part is simply to accept his invitation to allow him to love you and help you.

Remember, God's love is always just a prayer away, and I hope these thoughts today bring comfort and guidance to you. You don't have to be perfect. You just have to be willing to let him help you, as he wants to. He is a God of new beginnings, hope, and a better future.

1 John 4:18 "There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

This is a great season to make a new commitment to take better care of yourself by loving and respecting yourself. Remembering that you deserve to be happy. There's not one thing that is too big for God to handle.
