"OUT OF THE DARKNESS" POST 52

For so long I had longed to be free of worries.  The more I wanted that worry free life though, the further it seemed to be from my grasp.  There are many things a person can find to worry about.  I am like everyone else,  I worried about everything.  If I found I didn't have anything to worry about, I would worry about that too.To free yourself from a mental prison takes work, but it can certainly be done. For the longest time, I just thought, when will my life get better?  To wait around on something in your life to magically change to get you out from under whatever worries you are dealing with, it is just not going to happen.  In my case, the addiction I had to borrowing money on a consistent basis was by far my worst issue.

Only healing the root cause of that issue was going to work to take that stress away.  By taking true action on my healing, I have gone from feeling that I had no choice but to borrow more money to get me out of trouble to actually not jumping quickly to that kind of conclusion and I do not do that anymore, thank goodness.   I went from lying about finances or anything else I felt I needed to hide, to telling the truth with much more ease.  

The release from all that stress has been absolutely wonderful.

I said all that to say this.  There are so many wonderful reasons to go inside yourself and ask the Divine to help heal your brokenness.

To now live my life with no major worries is a special gift that God has blessed me with.  I am at the point in my recovery now, that I can hold myself accountable on any decisions in regard to money.  If I do say so myself, I am very proud of how far I've come.  Peace of mind is tranquility, it is a calmness and a great freedom.

It is a feeling of being safe and protected.  You can be comfortable in your own skin.

How wonderful to be content with your life.  You can handle minor stressors and keep a positive outlook.  Facing uncomfortable truths in life is a difficult thing to accomplish; but oh, the outcome that leads to  that inner turmoil being forever gone.

God knows exactly what any of us are going through. He loves us. Worry steals a calm mind.

God does not want you living in a constant state of worry.

Another thing that worry is, is a heartfelt opportunity to trust God... Worrying is an exercise in futility.  You jump to conclusions without first getting all the facts.

Worry leads to fear and stress, not faith and rest. Take time to sit still in your thoughts and you will receive alot of valuable insight.  I have never regretted  my healing journey.  It is not easy to heal all your underlying issues;  it does take time, but it is your direct line to freedom and happiness.  Once all your healing is complete, you will come out of it a new person.  A person who has truth as a priority and a calming energy; a brand new zest for life.
