Weekly Inspiration: GIVE WORRY A TIME STAMP.

Peace & Blessings,

There have been times in our lives when we have met with conflict and thought we would never recover. Often times, given enough space between the past event and who we are currently, we look back on the previously perceived situation and roar with laughter! Why is the situation funny now but it wasn’t then? Perhaps, our perception has changed. You can choose to take some time out during this season of your life and realize that you are now creating future memories. Which means, that one day, you are going to reflect on this time period, realize that it was actually not that deep and roar with belly laughter!

With that said, give yourself some space to be silly as to not take things so seriously. The sun will rise and set tomorrow, (God willing) regardless of our current situations and circumstances.

If a matter is pressing, simply pick a date and time to worry about it. For instance, you may be worried about how a situation on the 18th of September may affect your life. You can choose to first surrender the entire situation to God, all the while praying, trusting and believing that God has taken care of the situation. Choose to be in a state of gratitude, knowing that that situation is under control, it’s worked out already. Next, get crystal clear about what your role is and take divinely inspired action doing what you can with a clear mind and with what you have. Make sure that all the while you know that your situations and circumstances do not define who you are and who you are becoming. This particular situation is merely an outcome stemming from previous thoughts. Most likely, those thoughts and thinking in that way no longer serves you.

With confident determination affirm that you are going to worry about that situation on September 17th, 2009 from 7:30 p.m. until 7:31 p.m. In the meantime, whenever that thought enters your mind and you feel like you want to think about the matter, remind yourself that you are going to think about it on September 17th 2009 at 7:30 p.m. ‘cuz God has it under control. Then, immediately begin thanking God for successfully resolving that problem and taking care of every situation and every circumstance pertaining to you and your loved ones. Be still and KNOW that it has already been worked out and choose not to talk about it. Let it go!

When 7:30 pm on September 17, 2009 arrives, tell yourself God worked that situation out already and keep it moving.

You are connected to the infinite supply of all there is. Wow, you get to be alive on this planet at this time in human history. You get to have a perceived ‘problem’ and all of the tools to the Source of all there is to solve them. You actually get to incorporate what you’ve learned from this experience and use it to help others as well as yourself during a present/future problem. In the words of Patricia Russell – McCloud, “If the problems or circumstances were less difficult, there would be no need to have someone with your ability to solve them.”

I wish you WELLNESS & successful conflict resolution through the Spirit of the Most High! Remember …it really is all in your mind.

In joy,
Joy Liani Hallman
