Let Go Let God With Hope And Faith

This Advent, My Hope Leads Me To Unwavering Faith In God. 

My belief in goodness—of the world, others, myself, and God—begins with hope. Maybe hope is all I can muster after a period of doubt or disappointment. As I feel hopeful, I begin to believe that new possibilities and better outcomes are available to me. My hopeful feelings lead to faith, a certainty that the goodness I could only sense before is the actual nature of life. With faith, I now direct my thoughts toward goodness, wholeness, and my heart’s desires. With gratitude for my awakening, I use faith to dismantle doubt and limitation. I hold only the best thoughts for myself. I know and feel in the depths of my soul that the good I desire is already mine. With unwavering faith and deep gratitude I claim it now.

For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him.—Psalm 62:5

Let Go Let God Have Fun

Fun Keeps My Heart Light. 

Today I take a break from work and everything else I need to do. I give myself permission to step back from being busy and just have some fun. Fun can come from anything that warms my heart or tickles my funny bone. Perhaps I am in the mood for a game with friends. Maybe I’d like to tackle a creative pursuit or play with my children or grandchildren. Even reading a book can be a quiet kind of enjoyment. My lighthearted spirit can make any activity fun. I can find it in anything that brings a smile to my face and joy to my heart. My happiness deepens my awareness of God, filling me with enthusiasm and contentment. Enjoying myself means I feel fully in the world and fully in God.

Go, eat your bread with enjoyment, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has long ago approved what you do.—Ecclesiastes 9:7

Let Go Let God With Inner Peace

 

The Peace Of God Dwells Within Me. 

When life swirls around me and I need a moment of quiet stillness, I center myself on the Christ within to find peace. Should I meet people struggling with troubling circumstances or the trials of daily living, I send them thoughts of assurance from my center of divine calm. Peace manifests as health, prosperity, and joyful relationships. I am a radiating center of peace, blessing everyone I meet. If I encounter a store clerk who seems frazzled by the holiday crowds, I say thank you for meeting the needs of so many people. My peaceful words have power. The more peace I send to others, the more I have for myself. During all the storms of life, serenity and tranquility are mine.

Thus you shall salute him: “Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.”—1 Samuel 25:6

Let Go Let God Be Thankful

I Am Grateful. 

My heart is filled with gratitude today—a profound expression of my love and faith. I give thanks for all my blessings, especially family, friends, shelter, and food. I also pause to appreciate everyday blessings, letting no small thing go unnoticed. I don’t need to wait for a special day to give thanks. Gratitude is a way of life, a commitment I make to find the good in all situations, to focus my attention on those things I wish to see manifest. As I express gratitude for everything I have and everything I hope to receive, I open the door to abundant blessings. I pray in faith and gratitude, living in blissful certainty of blessings still to come.

He took the seven loaves, and after giving thanks he broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute; and they distributed them to the crowd.—Mark 8:6

Let Go Let God Prepare

Taking Time To Prepare Is An Act Of Loving Intention. 

If I plan to do some entertaining at home, I spend time preparing for my guests’ arrival. This may mean tidying, creating space, and making sure I have enough food. I do this to create a welcoming environment and let my guests know how much I value their presence. I go about my preparations with joy, knowing the loving and deliberate attention I give is a gift to those who will receive it. I bring this sensibility to my spiritual life. I prepare by making time for quiet contemplation. I give myself a serene environment to practice the presence of God. I do not hurry the time I spend in prayer and meditation or let the day’s concerns and activities intrude on my peace. This is the gift I give to myself.

He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.—2 Corinthians 5:5

Let Go Let God Filled With Anticipation

I Am Filled With Joyous Anticipation. 

Sometimes I get so caught up in making preparations for a special day or event, I miss out on the joy of anticipation. I may be so busy tending to details or so eager for the day to arrive that I am not fully present to the expectant joy that fills my heart. Today I take a few moments to attune myself to what I am anticipating and why it is important to me. Perhaps I am getting ready to welcome guests into my home or preparing to visit loved ones. Maybe I’m getting ready to celebrate a milestone or just leisurely spend time with family and friends. The moment will arrive soon enough and will likely be over too fast. Mindful anticipation keeps me present to the joy that is on its way.

Day by day, as they spent much time together in the temple, they broke bread at home and ate their food with glad and generous hearts.—Acts 2:46

Let Go, Let God

With Love And Compassion I Let Go And Let God. 

Letting go is not giving up but engaging fully with the dynamic power of God. I give true support and compassion to others by releasing troubling concerns and aligning with the innate potential for good already within them. The most supportive action I can take is to affirm my faith and trust that the healing, prospering power of God is already theirs. This is true for me as well. When I let go of any need for control, I open myself to new answers. I relax, feeling confident the perfect solutions are unfolding for every circumstance. I release any habits of thinking or behavior that lead to worry. I release regret and free myself of the memories of past mistakes. I welcome the loving, guiding spirit of God within me to lead me in the direction of my best life.

Let the Lord your God show us where we should go and what we should do.—Jeremiah 42:3
