Ever So Often…

Ever so often we fall apart.

We get scared.

Hopelessness floods our thoughts

Immense anxiety taking control of the very core of our anatomy

We feel out of control and then

We just sleep

We push our stressor to the back burner

We engage in numerous senseless, mindless activities

All in hopes that our mind will give us ease

Peace.

Well, it won’t

Your problems won’t just disappear if you ignore them

They won’t solve themselves

And you won’t just get up one day and all is well with your world again

No.

It doesn’t work.

You see,

There is no shame in seeking help when you need it

No shame in casting all your cares upon him….

1 Peter 5:7

It is when we hit rock bottom that God is most able to help us

It is when we’ve prayed a million prayers

Cried a thousand tears

And wrestled with a hundred thoughts

That’s when he steps in

When you have forgotten that he hears your prayers

When you have literally just given up hope in a solution

That’s when he shows

I think that’s where we get our ‘saviour complex’ from

We like being someone’s knight in shining armour

We gain immense pleasure from saving others

I think God does too.

He enjoys being our saviour.

So pray.

Envision your ideal situation.

Put your goals on paper

And then do your very best

Whatever that looks like

And just leave it.

Just let it go.

Let go and let God

Or the universe

Or fate

Or whatever you believe in.

Watch how things just start falling in place

Watch your problems ‘solve themselves’

Because it is in letting go that we open our hearts and palms to receiving

As it the same motion that you use to give that you must use to receive.

Palms open.

 

~ For Lav & NKP

I only wish that you learn to receive as much as you give. You are deserving. 

Just let go.
