In GOD We Trust

IN GOD WE TRUST

It has always amazed me to read this legend in the coins of
the US. And even if I lately have learned to admire and like
this country in many ways, I think there is nothing that is
farther away from the truth, not meaning that in my country
is different, but here I don’t read it in every coin,
reminding me of where we put our trust.

If we trusted God we would not have the need of trying to
control everything, we would know that He or Life is a
greater intelligence than we are and would enjoy what is
there instead of suffering for what is not.

If we trusted God, we would know that her creation is
perfect, complete and divine, that we are part of this
beautiful art and we would not compare, judge and criticize
everything and everybody.

If we trusted God we would know that we have always been in
his heart and just have forgotten who we really are. We have
always rejoiced his heart and are home in him, playing for a
while in forgetfulness.

If we trusted God we would know that this beautiful Earth
is a paradise where there is enough for everybody if we
don’t create hell ourselves.

If we trusted God we would know that we can remember our
divine essence if we learn to listen to the content of our
mind and decide which thoughts I want to believe and which
are only chatter of the normal functioning of an amazing
instrument.

If we trusted God we would have more fun and play, knowing
that we are taken care of and are loved without conditions,
that we don’t have to try so hard, that we don’t have to
justify our existence and that being our selves is not only
enough, but beautiful.

If we trusted God we would not be afraid of crises and
change, we could be able to flow and not suffer imagining
horrible possibilities that will never be.

If we trusted God we would know that the divine purpose of
our existence is to let Life be through us and to be every
day more like our original design.

If we trusted God…we would be in heaven already here and
now.
Let us grow in trust for our own freedom and happiness.
Trust in God, in Life in us!!!

Sometimes all this work we do seems seperate and out of touch with the world. Like being happy and grateful are just not that easy. Well, grateful and happy are easy, it's the not complicating everything that's not easy. Because we don't know how to live life without complicating everything we do and then we call that "normal" and "the way it is".
We will do whatever is necessary to make ourselves "Right" because right is more important than happy or grateful . Right is even more important than the truth. We are not interested in the truth, we're interested in what we think because we believe what we think is so important.
Already the simple message of living with gratitude and being happy are complicated by all the words. If you want to be happy then maybe you don't need more money or better sex or more clean time or ....maybe all you need do is stop ..stop...stop....
Right now put all your attention on someone or something you have unconditional gratitude or love for and be with that feeling and energy for one minute...there is peace there with that thought...in one second your thinking will take over again and happy and grateful will be too complicated again so you'll do what we have all been taught to do, look for more or less or something,anything outside of ourself to fullfill you. It's a habit , break the habit and you will find happy and grateful already in you where it's always been.....Peace, Lee
