Your Birthing and Beginning

The loss of something in your life could be the birthing and beginning of a new thing. What you think is your end could actually be the beginning of something new and wonderful in your life. What we must learn is how to let things go and change our mindset so that a new beginning can take place. Don’t misinterpret the events around you and think this is the end of you.

The old has to go in order for the new to come. We must die to one life before we can enter another. Change is not a bad thing, we must change the way we think about certain things. In the words of Confucious, “They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.” So change is a necessary thing, it enables us to stretch and grow and reach new heights. Change is what is needed in order to birth and begin something new. Life comes from death, when something dies, a new life begins and when life is at the end of its journey, a new beginning starts.

The loss of a friend could be the beginning of new friendships. The loss of a job could be the beginning of a business enterprise and an opportunity to discover something new, a gift or talent that you never thought was there before. The loss of something could be the push that is needed to bring about the change in our character so that we can make the bad work out for good. Change is not a bad thing, it could be the birthing and beginning of a new thing.

My encouragement to you is to look through the lens of positivity and not to focus on the negative. This could be the birthing and beginning of a new you. If you don’t let go of the old, you may never discover the new. Is there anything you need to let go of? Maybe you need to let go of that friend who has caused you pain for years or that person who has abused you for years. Maybe you need to see the positive side and see the job loss as an opportunity for change and the birthing and beginning of a new thing, a new business or a new idea perhaps. You must let go of the pain to see the joy. Don’t worry, with a positive outlook and a determination to persevere you will come through and shine.

I would encourage you not to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders, drop it and let it go. Maybe that loss is not so bad afterall; it might be a tool of change, the change that will birth a new beginning for you. I encourage you to stay strong, run the race and be determined to win and maybe what you thought was the end might be the entry into your next season of promotion. May God bless you with a new season of change that will bring abundance into your life, may He cover and protect you and may you be victorious and prosper in all that you do.
