this poem is so amazing. it says all bout people holding on things that steals their joy and they console themselves by saying things will be fine. i know how it feeels to wana turn around a situation n make it be the way u want it to be. i was in a long term relationship, not happy but because of my ego n lying to myself hopin for someone to change but it was all a dream until i pray bout it. god gave me a courage and he removed that person out of my life. few months down i met a man who loves and respects me, now we r expectin our first baby that we both passsionate and we pray togeta for wisdom to raise our bundle of joy together. thank god for giving Bishop Jakes a wisdom to send away this wonderfull message to us.

I too have been disappointed greatly in a marriage that didnt work……I was bitter and angry for a long time until one day I let it go. I came to a point where I wished this man well in his life. Against all odds I started the year by sending him a message that I wished hum well in the new year. A load was lifted from my heart.

i also read this today,and felt a comfort,but rejection is hard it plays with your mind as well as your heart. This makes the second time i have been cheated on in a relationship.I dont quite understand!I have tried to contact the man that left me for another woman to wish him well and that i forgive him. No reply!I was raised baptist with my parents and my grandmother took me to the holiness churchs so i have been blessed in both fields.And i know god has never left me i have just been trying to do it on my own and cant.Please pray for me to have strength,patients,knowledge.Amen

I’m going through a difficult time with a man that I am so in love with and engaged to. We have been going through a lot of problems and he keeps cheating and lying to me and then some how knows how 2 put it on me to make me feel like i’m the problem. I cry almost everyday and i pray god gives me the strength to move on. After reading this I know I have a better tomorrow if I will just let go of yesterday…Pray for me everyone…

I thank you for your words of encouragement I have been recently giving this girl all Ive got from the core of my heart to give, but some way some how she always appear to be unapprecitive and im just only speaking about her actions so if you will please pray my strength that God Will will be done in the mist of this Mayham and High waters im dealling with I must truly say any man that deals with a woman that do not have the HolyGhost is truly in for a ruin especilly if he has been called 2Tim.4

I needed to read this again. Those are definitely inspired words. Please pray for me that I have the strength to do what he says, and LET GO. I’ve been in a relationship for 5 years. It was initially a battle, then turned wonderful, but now cocaine seems to have stolen away the man I was in love with again, and he says I’m unattractive to him and he wants to get away. I’ve been fighting it, and miserable, but these words ring true.

I’ve been through it all with men…verbal abuse,physical abuse,and rape.The straw that broke the camels back is when this man I’ve secretly loved for several years came back into my life and told me finely that it was love at first site when he meet me but was to afraid to say so..lead me to believe that he wanted a future with me and told me he wouldn’t do me like the men from my past. I found out he was a married man. It really did a number on me!!! He sings in a gospel group! lol He calls hisself a man of God. The pain at times is unbearable, I sometimes wonder were is the justice, but I have to and I will have faith in God that all things work to the greater good of those who serve the lord!!! Please pray for me!!!

I heard this poem in a class I was attending for separated persons. I held on to a lot of pains and deceptions from my husband and it made me into a bitter person. After meditating on this for a bit, I realized that I had to let go of not just the anger but of my husband. He chose to leave his family and I can’t waste anymore time hating. So Wendell, I’m letting you go. Thanks Bishop Jakes I think I’m now on my way to healing.
