STOP!!!

The fact that the mind is where decisions are made should be enough reason to know, when led by the Holy Spirit, Peace will be the result of that decision. The one and only decision that ever matters is your decision to surrender every care, concern, worry, disappointment, conflict, etc., to the Holy Spirit knowing it will not result in pain and suffering. Doing the exact opposite by holding on to what can't ever change (past) and/or stressing out about what you don't control (future) is precisely what causes pain and suffering.

Accepting the fact that you are not in control (and never was or ever will be) is all that's required to make clear your vision of Who God is in your Life. The instant a negative thought enters your mind say "STOP!!!" This happens when you've lost focus for a moment which is how that thought was allowed in but you decide what happens next. 

"STOP!!!" is all that's required to render Ego Powerless. "STOP!!!" signifies you recognize Ego has high jacked your mind and so you take your Power back! This "Spiritual warfare" is made up (not real) because there is nothing and no one that could ever conquer God. Do not bother analyzing  thoughts that Ego uses to blurr your vision. That's exactly what throws you off course, so don't spend another minute with it!

Return to the road that brings Peace - it's called Silence. Silence is the only place you'll be able to hear the Voice of God because it's the Holy Spirit that (quietly and swiftly) leads you back to God.

"STOP!!!" is what eliminates all the mind chatter. It works because you've recognized, what used to seem frightening is no longer a threat but a huge waste of time, leaving nothing but pain and suffering in its wake.

Stay alert so you're able to catch Ego before it continues and say "STOP!!!" Do this so you're not dragged off, striped of integrity and honor, and as a consequence, left with nothing but regret, pain, anger, resentment, blame, etc. STOP!!! Peace
