We go to God for God and that is all...the big ah-ha is that going to God for God is learning how to not take anything personally, how to give over, how to cease fighting, how to...period.
Going to God for God and that is all is ego deflation in depth. Ego deflation in depth is not something we can self-will, but it can only begin within us, with our gut-bucket feeling of being hopelessly and helplessly at sea to our own life at the moment.
That is surrender. We feel like a quitter, a loser, only this is not a "feels like" situation. We are accepting that we are a loser in this no-win battle of our own choosing, our own life. And there it is...the ray of light in the form of hope that opens to us.
Gloriously, we are not given the answer to the problem that brought us to surrender...which is what we thought was necessary and what we had been praying for. No...we no longer need a situational answer. Our heart and mind and soul are freed, and we know peace.
This does not last.
If we are doing it right.
This is the first step in learning how to...period.
We go to God for God and that is all repeatedly and for the rest of our life. That is the nature of ego and of God...both are with us 24/7, 365...it is ours to choose which we obey. Ego is our free-will siren, God is our saving Grace.
Choose you this day whom ye will serve. -- Joshua 24:15
Thank you.
