If we allow
the luxury of self pity to take over our life at any moment we are cut off from
GOD. The moment we begin to realize that GOD’s riches are available to us if we
ask for them our lives begin to change for the better. I have read and heard
that GOD will give us all we want if we ask for it in the name of his son Jesus
Christ. There are many things I have asked for and not gotten and the usual explanation
of this is that it was not GOD’s will for me to have it. So what is the secret
password or the perfect way to ask in order to receive? The “Quote” that comes
to mind is “When we surrender to GOD the journey begins”. If we get into the
habit of become grateful for what we do have we are in a better state of mind
and open to suggestion from GOD through other people. The end result is we
begin to ask for the things that will help us grow towards GOD’s purpose for
our life and not simply for the things that we think will make us happy.
Self Pity is our default emotion and is a
way of building a wall around us that can feel like a safe place with familiar
surroundings. However it will cut us off from GOD and keep us stagnant and
stale. The act of wallowing around in self pity is the same as trying to pick
up dog poop by the clean end. That thought always produces an image for me that
gets rid of the self pity.
Remember: Finding GOD’s will for you is the
greatest discovery, doing
GOD’s will is your greatest achievement!
