HOW TO HAVE JOY OUT OF LIFE - 9


HOW TO HAVE JOY OUT OF LIFE - 9

Practical Suggestion No. 7.

Be a master, not a slave. Be a master over circumstances, passions, desires and animal appetites. Therefore, learn self-control. Develop self-discipline. The man who is a slave to his desires and appetites soon finds that life becomes a burden. Do not allow yourself to be ruled or defeated by those things of which you should always be a master.

Practical Suggestion No. 8.


Let go, let go, let God! If you are frustrated, disappointed, hurt, unhappy, if you find that, in spite of putting forth your best efforts, you have failed, then let me say this to you: Let go, let go, let God! Let go of everything. Let God take charge of all your affairs! If only you can do this, you will find miracles happen in your life.

Begin right now to repeat the words: - Let go, let go, let God! As you continue to repeat this mystic formula, either silently or audibly, it will open the way for the flow of divine power, and you will be blessed.

A man fell seriously ill. The best of doctors could do nothing to help him recover. His wife wept, shed tears, prayed to Lord. There was no answer. The man’s condition became, more and more, critical. Then some one suggested to the wife: “Let go, let go, let God!”

“What do you mean?” she asked.

“Let go your husband,” she was told. “Do not cling to him. He does not belong to you. He belongs to God. Surrender him to the Lord and let Him do what He will.

The wife followed the advice and soon her husband’s recovery began. Today, he is hale and hearty.

Do you find yourself in a difficult situation? Are you passing through a period of storm? Are you in financial trouble, almost on the verge of bankruptcy? Are you filled with apprehensions in regard to some situations? Then let go, let go, let God! You will not be disappointed. You will find frustrations and fears dissolving. You will find tension and unhappiness vanishing. You will see limitations washed away and new opportunities open. God will work through you to bring your highest good into visible expression in your life. Letting go permits divine ideas to flow, divine light to shine, divine power to work, divine order and rightness to bless your mind, body and affairs.
