It’s a new week with a fresh chance to make it a great week.
But that’s not possible, you say; things are going to come up, there will be
stress at times, upsets may happen . . .
yes these are all true because that is life and these types of things
are a part of every day and are unavoidable but it is our behavior and
reactions that determine the outcome.
Determining how your week is going to go is a simple matter
of determining to turn it all over to God. Committing yourself to staying in
touch with the Spirit is the key to how it all works out. Staying in touch
means that you will:
- React Calmly
When we stay in communion with the Spirit, we are able to
react and/or stay calm in situations where we otherwise might loose control,
say things we don’t mean, exhibit anger, etc. Staying in communion is like
staying in a state of conscious meditation and prayer, asking and receiving
with every situation, person or task, the calming flow of the Spirit; it is
staying in the consciousness of Christ in all things.
- Receive More Guidance
By staying in communion with the Holy Spirit, we are able to
receive guidance that we would not otherwise receive when we are blocked off or
out of touch. We will have a knowing of what is right in each given moment so
that we can act accordingly. A sense of deep joy and trust then develops which
serves to strengthen our faith in God’s guidance for us.
- Be Willing
When we are in touch with the Spirit, we are much more apt
to be “willing” in circumstances where we would not necessarily be so without
God’s direction. We might be feeling stubborn or selfish or clinging to anger
but when we are in communion with God throughout the day each day, we become
willing to do what is right and not only do we become willing but we desire it
because we want to be pleasing.
No matter how we spend each day of the coming week, there is
always an answer for us, there is always help available no matter the task. If
we take it one step at a time and ask to re-energize for the next task as we go
through the day each day, we will have a great week knowing that we are being
guided by the grace of God in all things.
Suggestions to help stay in touch:
- Read the Bible
- Continued prayer throughout the day
- Thoughtful contemplation during breaks
- Small easy flash-cards with favorite verses and reminders
- Continued gratitude
- Acting on inspiration
- Short spaces of quiet time to re-align
Proverbs 3 Verses 5 - 6. [5] Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Have an amazing week!
