Open your hands

Good morning,

Life Studies Thursday

If GOD asked to give up everything you owned today would you do it?

If your answer is yes, that’s good to know. What I want to know is why will we not give up all of the doubts and fears we have right now? We can sit and talk about what would do for GOD but he is asking us now to give up the negativity. HE is asking us to let go of the past. HE is asking us to let go of the pain.  HE is asking us to let go so that he can make it better. If you trust HIM like you say you do then why not let go? I feel like I am constantly talking about this. Maybe I feel the need to drill it in. You want happy….then you have to let go of the negative. We can no longer think about what such and such did to you yesterday. That was yesterday. Stop trying to understand why Pookie Ray hurt your feelings. Who cares? Apparently if Pookie (or whomever) is treating you poorly then that’s not what’s for you. The real question should be why are you allowing people to treat you that way? Give it up.  Focus on what is going on in your life right now. Concentrate on the talents that you have been blessed with at this moment and begin to develop them. Work on the journey that has been laid out for you. GOD has given all of talents because at some point HE is going to call on us to use them so we need to be prepared. We will not be able to do that if we are stuck on something that doesn’t even matter anymore. Let’s not be hard headed. The real problem is that we do not trust. If it doesn’t happen when we think it should we start to make moves when we shouldn’t. We do anything to try to figure out how to make it work. Well I’m here to tell you that it won’t work because it’s not a part of HIS plan. Give it up. Trust. Do your part and then let go of the rest. Do what you can do right now. Work on the things that you have going on right now. Give those things the attention that they require. You never know what doors may open when you work on what you have right now. You can keep beating yourself in the head if you desire but there is no use in complaining about it when you are standing there holding the weapon. No more complaining. If you are going to pray about to then don’t worry. If you are going to worry then don’t pray. It’s as simple a that. When you are working through something then you shouldn’t have time to complain…. You are too busy. The more time you make to complain means the less time that you are making to work through the situation. We have been given life to live in the most fabulous manner. Let’s not ruin it by meditating on what we think we are missing.

Today give it all up!

AND remember letting go is making much needed space for better.

MAKE IT GREAT!
