One of the most life-saving words that Jesus ever spoke was in Mark 6:11. “Shake the dust off your feet and leave.” I love the way T.D. Jakes explained that. He calls it “The Gift of Goodbye, Shaking the Dust from Your Feet.” He wrote, “I’ve got the gift of goodbye. It’s a spiritual gift. I believe in goodbye. Sometimes you have to say goodbye in order to say hello to God’s new future.
If you are holding on to something that does not belong to you and was never intended for your life, let it go. If you are holding on to past hurts and pain, let it go. If someone has angered you and you are holding on to some evil thought of revenge and evil, let it go. If you are stuck in the past, let the past be the past. Let it go. If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship, let it go. If you are holding on to some regret, let it go. If you are trying to help someone who won’t even try to help himself, let it go.”
I hope you have the gift of goodbye. Don’t linger too long around your failures, regrets, rejections, or disappointments. Say goodbye. Some things you have to let go and shake the dust off and move on in order to live. Dr Tim Thompson

There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.
I don’t want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
The Bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us.[1 John 2:19]
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can’t make them stay.
LET THEM GO!!!
And it doesn’t mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you’ve got to know when people’s part in your story is over so that you don’t keep trying to raise the dead.
YOU’VE GOT TO KNOW WHEN IT’S DEAD.
You’ve got to know when it’s over. Let me tell you something. I’ve got the gift of goodbye. It’s the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in goodbye. It’s not that I’m hateful, it’s that I’m faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He’ll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don’t need it. Stop begging people to stay.
LET THEM GO!!!
