Sunday Morning Scripture - Let go and let God!

We can gather our thoughts, but the Lord gives the right answer. We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps. Commit your work to the Lord, and then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16: 1, 9, 3

Whatever you desire to manifest in your life, as you bring your thoughts together and make your plans, listen closely to the still small voice within for guidance. That's where you'll receive the right answer for the thoughts you entertain within your mind.

When you sit to write your plans, listen closely and feel the inner guidance as you're writing out your plans. As you go about your day putting your plan into action, listen closely for the steps you should take. For in so doing even if you've not calculated unforeseen mishaps, the inner guidance will prepare you and/or divert a negative situation.

Sometimes we make plans and find that things don't always turn out quite as we thought. If we learn to allow, let go and let God, we will begin to move with the flow, move with the turning of the tide. Then we are directed into a better way.

When you let go and let God, meaning to make your plans but be willing to release the outcome, you will succeed in whatever you do.

The goal you desire, keep it in mind, but the outcome and the avenue, allow the universe to organize on your behalf - let go and let God.

Finding things are not working out as you anticipated? Try releasing the outcome knowing that all will work out on your behalf.

In what area of your life do you feel you need to let go of the outcome?

Let go, let God - Part 5

Getting my body back - Day 91

I was recently looking for an important receipt I had placed on the kitchen counter with the intent of coming back later to file it. However, when I got back, my receipt which suddenly grew legs was gone. I looked high and low for it with no avail. None of the children knew where it was. At the point of frustration I gave up - I just let it go, went to bed and asked God to help me find it.

Today, as I was doing some spring cleaning in the kitchen, I felt that I should clean out the cupboard on the microwave stand. Lo and behold, as I emptied out all of the grocery store plastic bags, the receipt fell out on the floor; easily, effortlessly, peacefully.

When you let go and let God, no matter what situation - from the smallest thing as finding a receipt to the biggest problem - God will help you sort it out, no matter what.

Decide, then, that you would live your life stress-free as you let go and let God.

Fuelling words: I invite the wisdom of the Spirit in my daily exercise routine helping me manifest my goal easily and effortlessly.

Getting my body back - Day 90

It's amazing how inspiration can come to you in unlikely places and events. If you are working on a project and are tired of its monotony, it's time to reach inward for divine ideas to move you out of the rut.

Sometimes when I'm stuck on an article, instead of trying to force something to come, I may feel inspired to go out into the garden and just take a walk. At times it is almost instant or as I'm walking and observing the garden at every stage of new growth, I get an inspiration. We may be in a family discussion and teaching something to the children, and yes, for sure, here comes an inspiration.

As you let go and let God, inspired ideas come to help you with whatever it is you need help with at that moment. You may need to put down what you're working on and do something else in order to get the information you need to complete the initial task you were engaged in. Be open to receive it as it comes because it may not be wrapped in the package you expected it to come in the first place.

When you let go and let God in every situation of your life, you learn to become one with everything, even nature. The birds, bees, flowers, trees and even the wind all have a message for you at the time you need it, if you're paying attention and listening, and if you let go and let God use whatever method he chooses to.

Your inspiration may come on a simple message on a billboard or the rainbow in the sky. The message will be unique to you, for you and to your understanding. Just note that God does not always work the same way twice. If a bee is used to buzz by you at a time for you to listen up and pay attention, does not mean that every bee that goes by is the messenger for the hour. There's an inner knowing that you will be drawn in to the message of the moment, enhanced in your awareness and then as subtly as it comes, it goes until the next time.

Always be alert and the more you go with the flow and let go and let God, the more you will tap into inspiration in unlikely places and events.

Fuelling words: I let go and let God inspire me when my exercise routine becomes monotonous that I keep the freshness of new ideas every day.

Getting my body back - Day 89

Have you ever noticed that the more tense you become in your resistance to pain the more the intensity of the same pain you're trying to avoid? If you're one of many people who dislike being injected with a needle you'd know that the only way to get through the procedure without becoming hysterical is by taking a deep breath, relax into the moment and just allow the nurse or doctor to do their thing and get it over with.

I usually take a deep breath and look away, relaxing my body as much as I can. The pinch of the needle seems to be less painful and the blood flows easily as opposed to me stiffening up when the needle goes in, which could make a really quick procedure very complicated and unnecessarily painful.

Regardless of what situation you face, let relaxing be a part of your routine, no matter what. A stressful situation could be inflated or deflated by your reaction to it because of the energy you bring into it. If you see a stressful situation building or you are in a stressful situation, breathe and relax and go with the flow of peace. Let go and let God's peace fill you bringing the energy of peace to recharge a negative encounter into a positive one.

When I worked as a claims assistant/adjuster years ago, clients would call into the office or come into the office expecting to receive their benefit cheques. Sometimes those cheques did not yet arrive in the mail which irritated some of the clients. If I had acted in response to the clients' behaviour the situation would have been quite explosive.

But relaxing into the moment and seeing from the person's viewpoint enabled me to be empathetic to their needs and give a response which indicated that I cared about them and what they were going through. By relaxing into the moment and allowing the peace of the inner spirit to guide me changed the overcharged energy of the clients.

Plan in advance that whatever encounter you face, you will relax into the moment, let go, let God and respond from inner peace that your peaceful energy will overcome any negative energy.

Fuelling words: I achieve peace in my desire to achieve my ideal weight as I relax into the moment and let go and let God.

Creativity behind the scenes

No matter what project you are working on or what goal you are trying to achieve, when you have done all that you can do, let go and let God. When you are waiting for an answer to a solution, or you desire to find your life partner, let go and let God. Do what you can do within your power to do it, and then let go and let God.

By your letting go and allowing God to do his part, you are allowing the universe to work everything out on your behalf. Unknown and unforeseen circumstances are being shifted and moved to provide the most favourable condition for the manifestation of your desire. God is aligning everyone involved to bring you the desired results. People and appointments are being set up to meet your need.

Changes in legislation, regulations and procedures on all plains that involve you are being made as you let go and let God. If, like me, your life partner has to come from one city to come across several cities to find you, let go and let God do what he is doing to bring you the happiness you are looking for.

You may not know why you encountered traffic this morning on your way to work or an important business appointment, but let go and let God, because you may have just missed a fatal accident. When things are not going the way you initially intended it go, let go, let God.

If you have an idea for a custom designed dress or suit, you would either sketch the design or carry a picture of your design to the designer. The outcome of your project is totally left in the hands of the proficient designer to complete the outfit in the most efficient way possible.

Allow the creativity of the Great Designer behind the scene to design your desire into manifestation.

Fuelling words: I set my goal to achieve my ideal weight. I do what I can do within my power to do it. I let go and let God design the results behind the scenes to helping me manifest my desire.

Let go, let God

Getting my body back - Day 87

Ever since I was a child, I frequently heard my mother say, "Let go and let God." As I got older, the phrase became very real in my personal experiences.

When we're working on reaching our goal, the temptation to become anxious in its attainment can set in. It is our part in the creative process to ask, believe and act, beginning with what we know that we can do along with any inspired thought and/or action. The manifestation part is God's part and that is where we let go and let God do his part.

It's like entering into a business partnership and you've defined which part of the creative process of the product creation you'd do and what your partner would do based on each person's expertise. Once you've established these perimeters, you don't go over to your partner and say, "Well, this is the way I want this done and this is how you should do it."

The reason why you partnered with this person in the first place is because he/she is quite capable of accomplishing his/her end of the creative process without your input or overseeing what is done. You may not get the best work relationship with your partner if you're always intervening and taking over his/her job.

Soon enough, your partner will say, "Listen up, Buddy, seeing as how you know what's best and how to do the job, why don't you do it yourself. I'll just sit over here and let you do your thang."

After you've given it your best shot and become overwhelmed with frustration, you come to the realization that your partner knew exactly what he/she was doing and did it with ease and in the least amount of time possible.

It's the same with God. Do what is your part to do, but allow the expertise of the Creator to complete his end of the job as you let go and let God do his part in manifesting your desire at precisely the right time and under the right conditions.

Fuelling words: I do my part and step out of the way that God can do his part to bring out the best outcome possible.

Be flexible

Getting my body back - Day 76

Sometimes I find myself getting into such a rigid schedule; things have to be done at this time, this way and for so long. Rigid schedules could suck the life out of enjoyment at times, leading to stress when you don't keep to the schedule.

Where schedules are important, it is also equally important to relax and be flexible because it may be the time when you are being sent an awe-inspiring idea. When you are so hung up on keeping to schedule, you may be setting yourself up to missing the most inspiring moment of your life.

God does not always work on our timetables and schedules. However, the timing of the Spirit is always perfect and right on time.

If we allow ourselves to be flexible in our daily activities, we find ourselves relaxed and in tuned as everything that we are so concerned about falls into place. God is quite aware of the responsibilities we have, and God also knows how to fulfill every obligation that we must fulfill. As a matter of fact, some of the things that we put as priority sometimes are not as important as the amount of emphasis we place on them.

When you find yourself becoming overwhelmed and stressed, you have detached yourself from Spirit and for that moment have become independent. But once you turn and look within and relax your grip on the outcome of your day, you are giving the Spirit the opportunity to work on your behalf and you are giving yourself the opportunity to be released from stress and frustration.

Let go, let God and walk with the Spirit to meet all your obligations.

Fuelling words: I let go and let God work out the finer details of how to reach my ideal weight.
