Ego's purpose is to keep your mind in the past as it covers up the present and convinces you the future is going to be just as destructive. Because the present is lost to you, all you're able to see and understand is what Ego made up but has you believing is true.
The mind is frozen in time and unable to move forward because it hasn't let go. Fear of letting go leaves the possibility of Ego getting hurt and it won't ever allow that again. Anxiety of possibly getting hurt again puts Ego on guard, always ready to attack. Because Ego is insane and makes no sense, it causes drama and conflict where there was none although all it ever needs is to see itself in someone else.
Be grateful for the moment you're living right now for when you're able to spend more frequent and longer periods in the moment is when you'll loose track of time and thus begin living in the moment. It's at this point your eyes will be open and clear to see and experience God's hand at work in your favor. Don't dismiss it as a coincidence (there is no such thing!)
God doesn't need credit or accolades for being magnificent. Don't be confused, that's all Ego! It wants more than anything in the world to receive credit and accolades for anything/everything which is meaningless. Choose instead to go with meaning, value, worth, truth, honesty, integrity, love, respect, kindness, compassion, humility, sincerity, understanding, etc. These come from God and there is no price to pay for them!
Stay in the moment and be grateful for it, don't be confused, there is no other present like it!
