"Dear God,
In this moment, I let go of all thoughts and concerns.
When I let go, I am able to receive.
When my hands are formed into tight fists, I cannot open my hands to receive anything.
When I hang onto tight control,
When I close off my heart and my spirit,
I cannot receive Your blessings for me.
I let go to receive Your blessings.
Letting go in this moment, I receive Your loving presence around me and within me.
Help me to let go when I am feeling overwhelmed, so that I may receive Your peace.
Help me to let go when I feel fear so that in fear’s place I may receive love and courage.
I let go of problems and challenges in order to receive Your guidance and clarity.
I let go and trust You.
I will not fall.
You will catch me.
I let go and trust in the still, small voice inside of me.
Help me not to struggle but to surrender my struggle to You.
I gladly receive this gift of letting go and letting you lead me and guide me."
In Jesus name. Amen
From the book, A RETURN TO LOVE, BY Marianne Williamson...
"God knows what is best for us. And sometimes relationships don't work out for His reasons. Our job, as hard as it may be, is to move forward in accepting things we cannot change. You can't change other people, and you can't ask God to change them either. It's a sin actually to do that, for you are manipulating the free will of the other person. You CAN, however, ask to see the situation differently. You CAN ask for peace. You CAN ask the Holy Spirit to change your perceptions. The miracle is that, as you release judgement of your partner/husband/boyfriend, the pain in your heart and gut begins to subside.
The EGO is the enemy in this situation. And it might say in that situation that 'you'll never be at peace until that guy comes back.' That is just WRONG! Because peace isn't determined by circumstances outside us. Peace stems from forgiveness. Pain doesn't stem from the love we're denied by others, but rather from the love that we deny ourselves. In a case like that, it feels as though we're hurt by what someone else did. But what really has occurred is that someone else's closed heart has tempted us to close our own, and it is our own denial of love that hurts us. That's why the miracle is a shift in OUR own thinking; the willingness to keep our own heart open, regardless of what's going on inside us."
*I sincerely hope this helps. We deserve to feel, cherished, respected and cared for. If Jesus wouldn't treat us poorly, why should we accept anyone else doing it? Please know your worth my dear.
Blessings I send to you.
