Full Speed Ahead

For your consideration…

So many of us…me being one of them….just want to get things done. I am sure my friends and family are sick of hearing me say, “I just need to clear some of my plate.” We want to charge ahead.

Often we have been reminded that we don’t have to know the “whole” plan. Like a car’s headlights, we can not see the final destination. We don’t need to. We only need to see as far as the headlights are shining until eventually we reach our destination…a bit at a time.

Today’s message uses the same analogy but it talks about speed. We don’t always have to be set on “Full speed ahead.” We can dial it back a bit. We will get to the same place in Divine Timing. There is value in taking our time and noticing the journey. There may be things we want to pick up along the way. There may be things we need to see, people to meet, experiences to be had.

If we are feeling like we need to slow down, we should do that. If we are feeling like obstacles are being placed in our path, we are being asked to slow down. We need to be looking at the why. Speed is not always the most important factor. Relax.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

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

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

-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 at least 10 deep breaths.

-Notice Divine Timing.

What made me smile yesterday…

-Another beautiful day, much warmer than I thought it was going to be.

-An unexpected day off coming up means I will be able to go to my Mindfulness group next week.

-Catching up with Alex.

-A very fun class on how to create tea infused with essential oils.
