Trust God, trust me, and do the dishes!

Many times in our daily living, we question our decisions. We sometimes waste precious time worrying about something that has already happened, or something that has not happened, and may not ever. Once we learn to trust God on a daily basis, then we must trust that He will guide our lives in all areas. >From that point on, we need to focus on what is in front of us to do, and leave the rest to Him.

Moment by moment, I will free my mind of doubt, and I will take care of my business, and leave God to His.

Where do you run when you have run out of places to run?

There comes a time in everyone's life when reality must be faced. Sometimes it is faced drastically in deathour own, or someone else's. No one can escape ones self forever, and you can not run from reality with out it eventually catching up to you.

Moment by moment, I will deal with life on its own terms. I will look in the mirror and begin to change. I will accept responsibility for myself, and walk through reality with God.

Confess your faults to one another; repent and make amends to the best of your ability.

Continual guilt for mistakes made is not a qualification, nor a necessity of life. When we allow ourselves to be overcome with quilt from the past, we are wading in the problem, and we soon will drown. We are inviting misery to control our minds and hearts. This is not the will of God. We cannot find Gods peace if we are constantly creating turmoil.

Moment by moment, I will allow myself to be human, and after I have truly repented, and have made amends as best I can, then I will forgive myself.

We prove over and over again to ourselves and others that we do not have the power to control, fix, or change anything but our own behaviorand even that power comes from God. God has given us the simplicity of His love. This is all we need to solve any and every problem that arises. Humility is usually the last place we look to find peace; if it were the first, we could avoid a multitude of confusion.

Moment by moment, I will humble myself before the Almighty God, and I will take my place with the simple.

Angered action is a learned response; so is understanding.
