JANUARY 25
REFLECTION FOR TODAY
Before EA, I took on the responsibility of feeling loved ones’ pain when they
were hurting. For days I would obsessively try to think of the magic sentence
or idea which would solve their problems immediately. Now I realize I do not
have the power and knowledge, so I immediately turn another’s tough situation
over to God. My attitude now is: If God wants me to be helpful in a situation,
it will flow naturally, with no obsessiveness or self-will on my part. Most
times it is love and compassion which God wills me to give to the one in pain,
not a direct solution to their problems.
MEDITATION FOR TODAY
Please help me to let go of any situation I have been tightly hanging on to.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Emotional releasing of a problem is the first step towards a situation in which
I feel powerless.
