Let go and let God. I have heard this over and over and surrender
is never an easy task. There are times when
I find myself very wrapped up in the ‘role’ of being a Supreme Being who’s got
the ‘whole world in my hands’. This
quickly leads to frustration, disappointment, anxiety, anger, and exhaustion,
as well as, eventually the reality that it isn’t my job to run the universe or
anyone else’s life. Somehow I fall into
the trap of believing that I know what is best for others while disregarding
what is best for me. I want to hold on
to relationships that are ending or unhealthy for me. I continue to hold on to
beliefs and attitudes that no longer serve my purposes. I maintain old
behaviors that drag me under in the hope that maybe this time it will be
different.
Today I choose to release my
need to grasp for control and cling on to people, places, beliefs, behaviors,
and ideals that do not serve me. I open
my hands and surrender my expectations and judgments about this day. Life calls me forward with an open mind and
open heart. I will let go and let God.
