“The physical body is at work every moment, an array of mechanisms with a brilliance of design and efficiency our human efforts have never begun to match. Our hearts beat, our lungs breathe, our ears hear, our hair grows. And we don’t have to make them work — they just do. Planets revolve around the sun, seeds become flowers, embryos become babies, and with no help from us. Their movement is built into a natural system. You and I are integral parts of that system, too. We can let our lives be directed by the same force that makes flowers grow — or we can do it ourselves.
“To trust in the force that moves the universe is faith. Faith isn’t blind, it’s visionary. Faith is believing that the universe is on our side, and that the universe knows what it’s doing. Faith is a psychological awareness of an unfolding force for good, constantly at work in all dimensions.”
~ Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love
Do you have faith, my friend? Can you trust that all is as it should be, for right now anyway?
Here’s the test: the greater your need to control, the less faith you have. And a little more to ponder: have you noticed how the need to control creates tension while faith creates ease?
You don’t have to struggle, my friend. Relax and trust that the right thing happens.
