TEN GUIDELINES FROM GOD
Effective Immediately, please be aware that there are
changes YOU need to make in YOUR life. These changes
need to be completed in order that I may fulfill My
promises to you to grant you peace, joy and happiness
in this life. I apologize for any inconvenience, but
after all that I am doing, this seems very little to
ask of you. Please, follow these 10 guidelines
1. QUIT WORRYING:
Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit
andworry. Have you forgotten that I am here
to take all your burdens and carry them for you? Or do
you just enjoy fretting over every little
thing that comes your way?
2. PUT IT ON THE LIST:
Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the
list. No, not YOUR list. Put it on MY
to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the
problem. I can't help you until you turn it over to
Me. And although My to-do-list is long, I am after
all... God. I can take care of anything you put into
My hands. In fact, if the truth were ever really
known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you
never even realize.
3. TRUST ME:
Once you've given your burdens to Me, quit trying to
take them back. Trust in Me. Have the faith that I
will take care of all your needs, your problems and
your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on My
list. Problem with finances? Put it on My list.
Problems with your emotional roller coaster ? For My
sake, put it on My list. I want to help you. All you
have to do is ask.
4. LEAVE IT ALONE:
Don't wake up one morning and say, "Well, I'm feeling
much stronger now, I think I can handle it from here."
Why do you think you are feeling stronger now? It's
simple. You gave Me your burdens and I'm taking care
of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in
my peace. Don't you know that if I give you these
problems back, you will be right back where you
started? Leave them with Me and forget about them..
Just let Me do my job.
5. TALK TO ME:
I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was
making you crazy. Forget the worry and the fretting
because you know I'm in control. But there's one thing
I pray you never forget. Please, don't forget to talk
to Me - OFTEN! I love YOU! I want to hear your voice.
I want you to
include Me in on the things going on in your life. I
want to hear you talk about your friends
and family. Prayer is simply you having a conversation
with Me. I want to be your dearest friend.
6. HAVE FAITH:
I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see
from where you are. Have faith in Me that I know what
I'm doing. Trust Me; you wouldn't want the view from
My eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over
you, and meet your needs. You only have to trust Me.
Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems
as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple
part. How hard can trust be?
7. SHARE:
You were taught to share when you were only two years
old. When did you forget? That rule still applies.
Share with those who are less fortunate than you.
Share your joy with those who need encouragement.
Share your laughter with those who haven't heard any
in such a long time. Share your tears with those who
have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those
who have none.
8. BE PATIENT:
I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could
have so many diverse experiences. You grow from a
child to an adult, have children, change jobs many
times, learn many trades,
travel to so many places, meet thousands of people,
and experience so much. How can you be so impatient
then when it takes Me a little longer than you expect
to handle something on My to-do-list? Trust in My
timing, for My timing is perfect. Just because I
created the entire universe in only six days, everyone
thinks I should always rush, rush, rush.
9. BE KIND:
Be kind to others, for I love them just as much as I
love you. They may not dress like you, or talk like
you, or live the same way you do, but I still love you
all. Please try to get along, for My sake. I created
each of you different in some way. It would be too
boring if you were all identical. Please, know I love
each of your differences.
10. LOVE YOURSELF:
As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself?
You were created by me for one reason only -- to be
loved, and to love in return. I am a God of Love. Love
Me. Love your neighbors. But also love yourself. It
makes My heart ache when I see you so angry with
yourself when things go wrong. You are very precious
to me. Don't ever forget......
Dear Friends and Loved ones:
I received this from a friend and I have no idea who
wrote it, but I was so touched by it, that I had to
share it with you.
I hope that you will be blessed by it and will share
it with others.
Touch someone with your love.
Rather than focus upon the thorns of life,
smell theroses and count your blessings.
