Have you ever noticed what your mind remembers in minute detail compared to other things that are foggy to the memory?
Now maybe it’s different for you, but my magic magnifying mind likes to recall in exact detail the perceived wrongs it thinks I have experienced along with focusing on the faults in people, places, and things!
Then, on the other side, it has trouble seeing my part in these matters as well as my part in wrongs I have caused!
Luckily, my daily walk with Jesus, living the 12 Steps, and having a picket fence of friends who can keep me honest helps me to not let my warped mind fall into these illusions.
I am free of the shackles of self-will and can now focus on the more important things in life – helping others, being of service, and seeking God’s will.
How’s that working out for you?
Is your mind constantly reminding you of its perceived wrongs you have incurred?..
Check your experience…
“In this book you read again and again that faith did for us what we could not do for ourselves.” Big Book pg 70
Lord, let us break free from the shackles of our self-centered will to free our minds and hearts from the illusions fueled by our fears, pride, and insecurities, AMEN.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Romans 12:2
