Breathe!

Just for today, I remember to breathe deeply when I am unsettled by anxious thoughts.

Breathing in deeply I say, "Higher Power in" and then I exhale and say, "everything else out" and imagine all that is not of my HP (any fear, worries, anxious thoughts, resentments) being released out of me and floating away.  Breathing in again, "Higher Power in", and I imagine myself immersed in my HP's unconditional and infinitely Loving Presence...and then exhaling "everything else out"....and I feel all my cares and concerns being lifted and fading into nothing.    I repeat this for as long as is helpful. 


Thank you Higher Power for your infinite loving and powerful presence.  I trust that the power of your love and care for me and my family, is the greatest power that exists.  Help me to relax into the beauty of your peaceful presence.  All is well.




The term, "Higher Power" above, refers to God as you understand God.

Your Will Be Done

Dear God,

Your will be done and not mine. 

I turn my will and my life….everyone and everything over to Your Care. 

Help me Love.

Thanks for always being and for all You do.  Help me to love You and know You as You intend. 

Please remove my character defects that are in the way of my usefulness to You and others.

Amen.

Let Go and Let Your HP Handle It. [HP is your Higher Power, God as you understand God]

I am feeling an amazing Peace thanks to turning all my “issues” over to my HP’s Most Loving Absolute Care.  When I see/visualize myself putting anything I am concerned about in my HP’s Hands….and leaving it there….and my HP taking it from my “To Worry” list….I feel very amazingly peaceful. I accept that I am powerless to change all things outside of myself. …and most things inside myself….on my abilities. When my issues are left in God’s Most Loving Care, I can go about my day feeling relaxed. All is well, when I am not trying to be the “hp”. Not for me and not for anyone else.

Right now, see yourself taking what is bothering you…..and put it in the outstretched Loving Hands of your HP. See your HP taking all of it and putting it securely behind your HP. You can no longer see it. You have let it go, and your HP has completely taken it into God’s Most Loving Perfect Care. The Greater Good will now happen for that issue. The Greater Good for all concerned is my HP’s Will. I may not see it. My vision is limited. Only our HP can see the Big Picture. Only our HP can work this issue out for it’s eventual Greater Good. We can trust that completely. The issue has already been taken care of. We have turned it over to our HP. It is no longer our issue. Our HP has got this one.

We do not need to worry. God has this one.

Oh….and I almost forgot:

Be kind and gentle with yourself. You are doing the best you can. We are powerless and our lives will always be unmanageable, for one reason or another. Will this prevent us from being happy and being filled with God’s Peace? It does not need to. If we work our program, just for today. You can do that. Just for right now. Let go and let God handle it. It is no longer your issue to struggle over. It no longer belongs to you. It is securely in your HP’s Care.

I Let Go Of Trying To Fix

I’m tired of my old pattern of behavior,

my usual gut reaction to life’s challenges,

heavy with angst and struggle…

Today, working my program is about embracing and accepting powerlessness.

Impossible on my own.

I am grateful that God’s Abilities are Infinitely Greater than mine…

God, please help me accept my powerlessness!

Help me let go

of trying to “fix” the world

so no one gets hurt anymore…..

especially the people I love and care about. 

It is exhausting to try and be the “hp” for me and those around me. 

I am powerless. 

I can let go. 

I can let God.

I don’t have to worry.

I can drop my old stressful desperation to “fix”.

  I don’t have to try and be (and always be a failure) perfect.

I can relax so I can love.

Just for today, I let go of

trying to
fix.
