Today

An opportunity to see things from a different perspective.  An opportunity to put the following to the test. An opportunity to challenge what is offered as words of encouragement. An opportunity to put up or shut up!

"One day at a Time."

Because you've lost track of yourself, you seem to have lost your identity. Your race, religious beliefs, title(s), political party, class, membership(s) (club, organization, society, group, etc.) has absolutely nothing to do with your identity. Those listed above are examples of what Ego made up to help you feel like you're apart of something simply because we've been tricked into believing we are separate from one another but want to be connected. Is that not ridiculous?!?

Please do not believe that because something has been a custom for hundreds or thousands of years for that matter, it's an excuse to disregard its' ignorance/lack of knowledge. Fighting against what doesn't make sense does not make sense either! One has to "Be still" (stay silent) in order for ignorance/Ego to be recognized for what it is otherwise Ego will continue its shenanigans but where you'll never find Peace.

If Peace is what you want, know you already have it! You tap into it by remembering Peace is within and will never be found to experience in an external component. Because Peace is within, you never have to fight for it, die for it or kill for it! Peace is not found in any of those. Once again, you've  been tricked by Ego which uses Fear to convince you Peace is unattainable without its protection of you! How long will you cling to what Ego taught you yet continue to ask God for answers to problems you keep on creating?

Choose Today to ponder the idea of there being enough for everyone. This is the first step in allowing the Holy Spirit to uncover what Ego hid from you by confusing you into believing you have to fight to get yours or kill in order to keep it. This is where greed, jealousy, envy, hatred, etc., comes into play. What you don't remember is Time is only a delay in what is already yours. 

Healing comes from Forgiveness. Because we've forgotten who we are, the need for forgiveness is still necessary. Allow the Holy Spirit to make clear your path and your words along with your actions will no longer call for forgiveness. Once your vision has been made clear, you will not panic when trouble comes your way. You will not take what may seem like a personal attack, which you will clearly see is a call for Love, as "not your problem" because you will be able to recognize it as the opportunity it is, for you to show God in you by looking past Ego's disguises to see God in others. 

Peace comes from remembering Who is in Control (always was and will always be) and because of Who He is, God, Jehovah, Allah, Yahweh, however you prefer to acknowledge Him, there is no need to worry about what's to come. You will also come to realize there is no reason to continue to hold onto what can never be undone. Because forgiveness comes from God (who keeps no record of your past sins) forgiveness is freely given. Offer complete forgiveness (keeping no record of past offenses) and you will have Peace. This is not difficult, you are just confused about what is true and what is not which explains your confusion and lack of Trust. Think otherwise and you will be fooled into believing you have forgiven all the while, revenge, resentment, mistrust, hurt, anger, etc., will lurk in the dark corners of your mind forming a callus around your heart and adding another brick to the wall Ego has you believing  is necessary to protect you.

Choose Today to remember who you are and you will see God's hand at work in everything you do! Peace
