Over and over the message that seems to come out of life is let go. We hold on so tight to our ideas of how things are supposed to be that we see life in comparison to our own thinking. Meaning that we place expectations before an experience and then we judge the experience as being good or bad based on whether or not it met our expectations. This includes other people and ourselves. This is why the policy of forgiveness is so important. It is the healing balm through which we are able to let go of expectations, judgments, and also let go of the idea that the situation or circumstance determines our happiness. When we are not attached to an outer experience but instead guided by our hearts experience of a situation all seems to fall into place. I don’t know about you, but I need God’s help with this, sometimes on a moment to moment basis. My prayer for you today is that you be willing to let go of how things “should” be and ask God how he wants things to be for you in a given situation. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
