Life can be a little tough for us all. These are hard times. the world is rocked like a babe due to all the financial and economic drama. The news comes blasting out at us, like a monkey with it’s tail on fire. It does not help. But keeps us still wrapped up in the clouds of human deception.

As a counselor I am humbled and privileged to be involved with people’s lives at a very deep and effective level. To me, it is apparent that some of this chaotic energy is causing to filter into the personal lives of people. The loss of Jobs, Wages, Homes and personal stability is causing many of us to rack around in our own personal relationships and our own personalities. There is not a time called “ Satan’s Time” but I am sure that he is having an ice cream fest to celebrate our misery….

During the last week my spirit has been drawn to many spiritual aspects, one of which was “ Letting go of problems, and having strength through adversity”

Life is not without problems. Life will always have them. For we are imperfect creatures generally trying to make good of messy situations. So it this is the case how does this help us in our daily life? and where is God in all of this? Why does he allow such difficulties to prevail?

The answer is simple. God did not create these problems. We did. However God helps us through them. He uses them to create strength of character and a deeper spiritual understanding within us. Sometimes it is that we have forgotten our own spirituality and we are just going about our merry way. In the mean time our ever wondering soul is suffering through the grind of day to day stuff.

Or, we simply ignore that we are spirit filled beings and just go on looking at our earthly surroundings. Forgetting our higher purpose of this lifetime. Now ask your self. What do you remember most. Joy or Pain. Most of the time it is pain that makes us realize how we can do better the next time around. It is pain that helps us reach our higher self and ask God for his forgiveness. So it is all these troubles that finally connects us to our inner spiritual being, more than any of the grand wonderful things this world gives to us. Well of course there are good things such as love and joy that also instill the presence of our spirit, and God within us. But that is for another story for another day and another time my friends.

“ How we deal with a problem, determines how long we stay in the problem” John Hagee

This is so true. Sometimes we cannot control how other’s are, or what they will do. We place our faith and trust in them, we expect great things from them. We assume that they would do or treat you how you would treat them. Only for find out that you are let down. Now you can go on and be angry, hurt, and revengeful, or you can just let go of that and open your arms to better things.Remember when one door closes seven more will open. Remember you may not be able to change the situation. But you can change YOU!
Also we think that God should and would answer “ All “ prayer. Well that is true. He does. However how can we hear him when we are disgruntled and upset and having all these angry voices in our head. How can the still small voice of God come to us. We shut ourselves with angry thoughts….
That is when we shut out the light. Don’t shut out the light. Remember “ All things work out for the Good when we trust in God” and I may add in the power of our own higher spirits. So even if someone has let you down. You can turn that wrong to right but doing a few of these things.

Pick up a good book that you think has some spirit filled materiel. Chose the author carefully. It has to be someone that speaks to your soul. Focus on reading and take your mind away from the problem.
Pick up some scriptures that speak of the promises of God, and put them up on your computer or somewhere you can see them regularly.
Play some sweet music. That will heal your soul.
Speak in spirit, to the person that has hurt you and say that you forgive them. Mean it ! then ask your higher spirit and God to help you let go. Let go and Let God.
Remember it is your path that will lead to the final destiny. So handle it with respect. Handle it well. Keep those promises to yourself and God.
Remember that TIME is essential and a man that delays and lingers on is like an old rag that is caught by the storm. The colors fade and it’s vibrance dies down.

Create a better space in your spirt. Knowing that each new day can be a new beginning. Stop complaining. Start Living. Enjoy everything. Give Praise in All circumstances. For all things will work for the greater good when you are truly in the light.

May the many miracles of life remain with you. and remember never to stop working for them.
