is a lie
cowards tell themselves
so we don't have to try
so we don't find out the truth
where is the proof?
can you be absolutely certain
that you are inadequate?
how would you know?
you just keep telling yourself this...
you've never really tried
you've never given all you have
you've never given yourself to anything wholly
you've never surrendered your life
your personality
your self concept
you've never given up your beliefs about yourself
you've never thrown it all to the wind
you've never yet wildly abandoned yourself to God
you've never really let everything fall away
and be subordinate to faith
and just given yourself completely to
this big idea that is bigger than you
you are still holding on for the dear life of your personality
forget your crap
your gifts are not yours to hide
you don't belong to you
you are part of the whole
you belong to everyone
your gifts are for them
what about all those loving hearts
that are just waiting to light up as they receive your gifts?
it cannot be that life itself is incapable of
expressing itself fully
what if you made a fool of yourself?
what if you failed?
no one can fail
who goes 100% with her heart
this is life
in this moment
this is living
anything else is death
anything less is failure
we are not looking for "results"
we have no other motive
but to be true to our deepest Love
to be honest
to live totally honestly
our actions totally consistent with our thought
we can't hang onto the ground and fly!!!
we must let go completely
we must look up
and quit looking at the ground
if we want to fly
quit the reruns
it's time for the real thing!
Wow, talk about hitting the nail on the head...I really needed to hear that as it really expresses what has been circling my mind the last few days. Now my question is, how do I let go? How do I truly open my heart and mind and let go of the bs so that faith takes complete hold? Carolyn B.....
ReplyDeletewe do it in this moment
ReplyDeleteand we CAN do it, because we realize
we do this
or we are dead
and we are done with death
we have done it for soooo long
we choose life
and we choose it together
we recognize how powerful our helpers
are and we call on them
faithfully when we need support
because it is but one Strength/Life we share.
thanks so much for your enthusiasm.
we let
enthusiasm
lead
the way
love,
Joy
