“It starts with you” stated my spirituality mentor, “Anything that comes along from now on and moving forward.” This was the moment I had to realize that I was standing in my own way of greatness in love and life. I knew all I could do now was to face the inevitable change.
We have all been in that predicament where we knew we deserved better, but we held on longer than needed because we thought in our minds that the person, situation or thing, would one day change. Unfortunately, that day never comes, and you find yourself waiting and waiting for absolutely the same scenario to play out the same each day. When this happened to me I began to think to myself, was I fighting a resistance of a higher source? Was I being protected from what wasn’t meant for me? Is it my turn to trust?
Whoever is willing to sacrifice his life for God
will always be under His protection
Isn’t it funny when things don’t go as we had hoped they would, we instantly become the victim rather than be thankful. I see many situations in life as black or white less often grey. While you might want to justify others actions and not see it for what it truly is you really only have two options. You can move forward with the peace that comes from accepting that the outcome is out of your hands, through surrendering to something much bigger. Or you can again play the victim card and fight what you are being protected from. We need to remember that even when circumstances are beyond your control, life often works out just fine, and sometimes even better than you could have imagined and that is the power of being protected.
