Inspiration of the Day
Inspiration of the day is particularly important. It is here to motivate you to live in the moment. The past is done and gone. Once you have examined what your
rocks
are you need to build your foundation on the lessons you have learned. Then close the door, knowing you are standing where you are today, thankful of the past, having forgiven yourself for any mistakes. Then tomorrow if your past jumps into your head, be thankful, forgive yourself again if you need to and concentrate on today.
The future is out of your control. The control thing is a big one. None of us knows what the future holds, not the next hour, the next day, or the next week. Accept that concept and be thankful for it. It will help you feel the weight lifted off your shoulders.So if you can let go of the past, and release the future, you are left with today and this moment in time. Living for the moment is a new concept. The inspiration of the day is to appreciate each moment and experience as they happen. This is your gift. Do you look with apprehension to that big event like graduation, or thanksgiving dinner? Do you stress over every detail, a million scenarios filling your head? You want to be prepared for absolutely everything. But by the time the event is over the experience is a blur. You forgot to enjoy it at all. You have no control over anything in the future. Recognize that all the scenarios you can think of are not going to happen.
Instead of being apprehensive, look forward to each moment that hasn't happened yet as a wrapped gift. It is sitting on the table, and you have no idea what is in it. Don't you love getting gifts? Enjoy the excitement of anticipation you feel when you look at it. Remind yourself today that the future is a gift. You can anticipate each moment to be new and different, each a learning experience that will shape who you are. When you release the anxiety and really live through an event feeling each individual moment, you will truly live. You will begin to enjoy each activity rather than surviving it, exhausted and with no memory of the gifts you received when it is finished.
Inspiration of the day is here to remind you to breathe and relax then stop grasping for control so you can experience life free and content in the moment. Other wise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them. But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. Matthew 13:15-16 Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:29-30 He who belongs to God hears what God says. John 8:47 I hope this page lightens your spirit. I hope it inspires you to work through any anxiety and remember how to enjoy the life you are given each day looking toward the gifts of tomorrow with anticipation.
