Acceptance. This is key for me.
When I am awake enough to notice that "life is not working for
me," I realize in that moment that I have not accepted
someone, or thing, place or situation as it is in the moment.
When I relax into the moment
and accept... life is better... when I am going with the flow
of life, life flows for me.
Eckert Tolle says that "when you fight life, life fights you"
and for me that is true.
The moment I released the farm and
thanked God... calls came from others who wanted to help. At
the very moment it seemed that the Farm would not be... it
actually arrived. On God's time and not on mine.
NO THING, nothing is out of order
in God's world or the Universe. NOTHING. When I wake up and
remember that and accept it... miracles happen.
So, try it today... as you read
this if you feel some resistance to parts or all of it...
accept it... as it is.
Accept everyone and everything the way they are today. See the
divine in "just how things are." Perhaps identify how you are,
like that which is being shown to you... life is a mirror and
it's much better when we accept the image that it is
reflecting back.
Living in a Galaxy, in a Universe is a miracle. Even with all
the chaos and conflict, life is asking us to accept what is.
Joy and Satisfaction comes with acceptance. Laugh a little,
when you are tempted to react...
Or
maybe not... try them both... I suggest that God is in the
contrast...
So
when things are seemingly not acceptable to you... surrender
instead of fighting it, be grateful for the NOW that you have,
and see if joy comes...
If
not, accept that too...
I
am blessed and grateful most of all.
