Let Go, Let God

I Let Go And Trust Divine Timing.

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is wait. Modern life has conditioned me to expect things to happen quickly and to think I must always be doing something to keep moving in the direction of my dreams. But the process of manifestation involves so much more than my efforts and desire alone. I cannot force or rush divine timing. I trust the good that comes into my life arrives in the right way and at the right time. I remind myself of this when I begin to feel impatient or restless because I am not doing enough. Sometimes the only thing left to do is let go, let God, and wait. Patience comes easier when I trust the grace and goodness of God, active in the world and in my life always and forever. 

Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!—Psalm 27:14

Let Go Let God Be Comforted

I Am Comforted By The Divine Presence Within Me.

I am grateful for the people who have understood how to comfort me when I was feeling down. They listened when I needed to talk and blessed me with their kindness. Often they didn’t need to say a word or do anything more than be with me for a while. Their understanding presence was what I really needed. Even if I am without the comforting presence of another, I can find comfort in the divine presence within me. As I open my heart to God, I feel understood, loved, and accepted completely, just as I am. I need not feel self-conscious about needing comfort or how I express my feelings. I need only feel the unconditional love of God. As my trust in the divine presence grows, my sadness diminishes. Healing peace flows through my entire being as I am comforted.

As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you; you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.—Isaiah 66:13

Let Go Let God There Is Time Enough

I Have Time Enough To Do What Is Mine To Do. 

It’s natural to wonder how I’ll find time to do all that is before me, especially if I feel overburdened or pulled in too many directions. When this happens, I affirm: I have time enough. These simple yet powerful words remind me I am in control of how I focus my energy and how I use my time. Even if I cannot control what is happening around me, I can control what is happening within me. Through the power of God within, I use my spiritual gift of will to choose how to direct my attention and energy. I do one thing at a time, affirming I have time enough when I am tempted to try to multitask. Reclaiming my spiritual power, I relax and feel time expand. I do what is mine to do, affirming I have time enough as often as I need to.

So teach us to count our days that we may gain a wise heart.—Psalm 90:12

Let Go Let God Be Lighthearted

My Heart Is Light And My Life Is Peaceful.

My experience of life depends on my attitude toward it. If my obligations and concerns are weighing heavily on me, I turn to the wisdom of my heart. Here, there is only peace and love. In prayer, I feel this love flow from my heart throughout my body and mind. Life-affirming, positive feelings are a balm for my mind and body, soothing and comforting me. When I return to the activity of my daily life, I feel lighthearted. My concerns now pass through my mind like clouds in the sky. Life feels full of possibility, and I feel full of hope. Meeting life with a light heart helps me keep my cares and worries in perspective. I return again and again to my heart’s wisdom and carry it into the world.

A glad heart makes a cheerful countenance.—Proverbs 15:13

Let Go Let God Forgive

I Forgive And Free Myself From The Weight of Resentment

Sometimes I forgive easily. Other times forgiving feels harder, especially if I am in pain. I may feel disappointed, thinking forgiving should be easy no matter the circumstances. I remind myself forgiving is a process, and it’s natural to struggle with it from time to time. My willingness to forgive is a good and necessary start. If I find myself ruminating over resentments or wondering whether someone who wronged me deserves my forgiveness, I remember forgiveness is not for them. It’s for me. Knowing this, I pray for the capacity to forgive. If a lack of forgiveness keeps me from the fullness of life, I turn to the Divine within me to discover peace beyond the struggle and love beyond the pain. Forgiveness is the way. 

Then hear in heaven your dwelling place, forgive, act, and render to all whose hearts you know.—1 Kings 8:39

Let Go Let God with Ease

Living As A Divine Being I Am, I Know Ease.

Perhaps the best way to flow with the world’s changing circumstances is to rise above them. I am foremost a spiritual being. This means I have more creative power than I usually give myself credit for. It also helps me keep life’s shifting rhythms in perspective. Rather than becoming troubled by unwelcome developments, I turn within to the peace and perfection of God. In this space, I relax and feel completely at ease with myself, all others, and the state of my life. I bring my calm bearing to every area of life. Through my spiritual practices—prayer, meditation, visualization, affirmations—I live from my divinity and keep my connection with God at the forefront of my consciousness. This is how I live with ease and grace, no matter what. 

To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.—Romans 8:6

Let Go Let God Feel Gratitude

I Feel The Presence Of God As I Express My Gratitude.

Gratitude may not always come naturally to me. Perhaps I have started the day feeling rushed and stressed or I may be juggling multiple obligations or have too many demands on my time. Pausing for a moment of gratitude shifts my outlook. I pause, breathe deeply, and simply affirm: I am grateful. As I do, I feel my heart open. I breathe a cleansing, renewing breath and exhale any troubling or anxious thoughts. My heartbeat slows, my mind settles, and my body relaxes. It takes only a moment, and the benefits are so worthwhile. With 24 hours in a day, I know it’s possible to take a few moments to focus on being thankful. As I do, I feel gratitude fill me in mind, heart, and soul. I affirm again and again: I am grateful.

I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart.—Psalm 138:1
