We hear, "God has my back." We like that...what's to hate? We start saying that...that becomes our go-to phrase. Then SPLAT...we get a less-than-wonderful right upside our head.
This is when we start building our trust in that which we have been mindlessly repeating,"God has my back." That beginning feels like we're just whistling by the cemetery all the while repeating, "I expect the best," "All is as it should be," etc. Those are the exactly right words, we just need to raise our expectations deeper. Which means, give up our idea of what is "best" and/or "as it should be." Our idea of what is best at that point is just that, our idea. Which is, in fact, just another self-determined objective.
We get to give up any personal idea of what is best. We begin by UNknowing our idea of best by changing our mind. We come to believe that our impersonal best, that which is of God, is already ours through the power of God within us/without us now.
Our job is to stay focused on the fact that God is only good. I keep my focus by saying unto believing, "You got the power, God. Knock yourself out. I'm on your side no matter what my eyeballs tell me." We are building a gut-bucket belief that God does have our back...that's our only construction project. Digging deeper to let what is in out.
This is acceptance in a word...if we will accept that which is, no matter what it appears to be to our reasoning mind, we will live in peace. All that is required is that we learn to say "no" to whatever freak is appearing...because, after all, God not only has our back, but our front, sides and center. So let It.
Thank you.
