LOOSE IT, AND LET IT BE

When we're all wrapped around ourself, taking ourself too seriously, remembering that it is our ego doing our thinking for us is a momentary pitstop...that does not lift it, our ego problem du jour. Face it, that would give us control. No. we must turn to God every time. We must name our perceived problem  and give up by giving our will over to him...again, each time.

It occurs that just saying whatever might work, but that keeps it tied to the reasoning mind. Best to remember to pray thank you when in the midst of a dreaded something...no better reminder of who is in charge, who is doing it right...not me, in a word.

When God's will showing up in our life seems to take so long, we might consider that every delay, lie, exaggeration, fear-balk is the cause of the delay in God's will being done...slows his perfect will as he deals with that ego-delay for us and for all the others affected by our reliance on our reasoning mind to fix it.

We might also consider that his will has already been done...the delay is in our willingness to accept that. Or our unwillingness to accept that what we see is God's perfect will...done. The sooner we detach from our want-to, the clearer our path forward shows forth.

Thank you.
