Have you ever seen that viral image of the little girl clutching her small teddy bear, refusing to let it go, while God stands behind her holding a much bigger one? The girl tearfully insists, “I love him; I don’t want to let go.” Little does she know, something infinitely better awaits her if she would just release her grip.
It’s a simple picture with a profound lesson, and honestly, isn’t that all of us sometimes?
Clinging to the Familiar: The Struggle is Real 🧸
Picture this: You’re stuck in a toxic friendship. You’ve known this person forever, and even though they drain your energy and bring negativity into your life, you stay. You tell yourself, “They’ve been there for me in the past, so I can’t just walk away now.”
Sound familiar? We hold on tight to things we’ve outgrown:
Unhealthy relationships 🧑🤝🧑
Old frustrations 😤
Resentments that weigh down our hearts 💔
The need to control outcomes 🙇♀️
Even when we know deep down that these things aren’t serving us, letting go feels terrifying. Why? Because our current “small bear” feels safe. Familiar. Comforting.
But here’s the thing: if your hands are full, how will you receive the blessings waiting for you? 🤔
Why Letting Go Feels Hard
Letting go isn’t just about losing something; it’s about trusting the unknown. It’s about believing that what lies ahead is so much better than what you’re holding onto.
But trust is scary. It feels like standing on the edge of a cliff and wondering if there’s a net below.
Let me tell you this: the “net” isn’t just below—it’s all around. And when you let go, you make room for:
Healing from the wounds of the past 🩹.
Clarity to see your true passions 🔍.
Abundance that aligns with your purpose 💰.

A Real-Life Example: The Friend I Had to Let Go
Years ago, I had a friend who’d been in my life forever. But as time went on, I started realizing how toxic the relationship had become. They always doubted my dreams, brought negativity into conversations, and drained me emotionally.
It was so hard to walk away because we shared so many memories. I thought, “What if I never find someone who understands me the same way?” But deep down, I knew holding on to that friendship was stopping me from growing.
When I finally let go, my world opened up. I found people who truly supported and uplifted me. I gained clarity about my purpose and felt a sense of peace that I didn’t know I was missing.
Was it scary? Absolutely. Was it worth it? 100% yes.
Maybe This is Your Sign 🛑
If you’ve been holding onto something that’s no longer serving you—whether it’s a toxic relationship, self-doubt, or the belief that your dreams aren’t possible—this is your invitation to let go.
When you do, you’ll make room for opportunities that align with your heart, your purpose, and the prosperity you deserve.
