For your consideration…..

We are proof in the pudding that fretting is a waste of time and energy. Here we stand today with the benefit of life experience. We have weathered many storms big and small. As they presented themselves, we handled them.

Fretting and worrying come from the ego. The ego has taken our past, twisted it into “what-ifs” and thrown it into our present and future. We can change that. Our authentic self can always override our ego. How? We focus on all that we have. We let gratitude (the proof in the pudding) replace fretting. We focus on what we know and have instead of “what if.”

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take….

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Every time we catch ourselves “fretting” we can refocus on what we do have and send up a prayer of gratitude.

What made me smile yesterday….

-My brother came for a visit.

-Lots done in one day. Wow.

-Seeing Mac and AJ. They made us laugh.

-I survived 6th grade 6th hour. Yikes.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,

Rev. Chris
