September 24th – Let Go and Let God
“Petty problems have stopped bedeviling us.”
– Life with Hope, third edition, page 45
I was an expert at getting bent out of shape by problems that I encountered in my daily life. It didn’t take much for me to get disturbed by things that didn’t line up with my view of what should and shouldn’t be. It didn’t take much for me to get my nose out of joint, become angry, or feel sorry for myself. Constantly assigning my view of what should or shouldn’t be, caused me needless angst and was totally useless. The real problem was me, not what was or wasn’t going on in my daily life. My unrealistic and selfish expectations led me to be easily disappointed or disturbed. Turning my will and life over to the care of God has helped me to let go and “go with the flow.”
Final thought: I live in peace when I “let go and let God.”

Finding the Courage
Written By, Katherine T. I want to start by talking about where I came from, because I think so much of my struggle with open-mindedness and honesty started in my childhood. Growing up, I was taught to believe exactly what my family believed. There wasn’t room for questioning, for doubt, or for my own voice.…

Hunger in Chains
Written By, John C. I wake up to the gnaw, the claw, the whisper—a voice that slithers in my veins,coiling around my ribs like a python with patience.It doesn’t scream; it seduces,doesn’t demand; it devours. I tell myself, not today.Today I will walk past the firewithout dipping my hands into the flames.Today I will not…
