Cease straining after anything and simply allow things to unfold. Do not allow worry to bind you and blind you, but learn to cast all your burdens upon Me so that you are free to do My will and walk in My ways. I cannot use you when you are tied up with yourself and cannot see the wood for the trees, so relax and let go. Be still and dwell on the wonders of life. Let your mind be stayed on Me. Open your eyes and see Me in everything, and give eternal thanks. When you can see Me in everything, your heart is so full you cannot fail to give thanks; it simply bubbles up in you and flows out. You cannot hide a heart full of love and gratitude, for it is reflected for all to see. When you are in a state of joy and thanksgiving, you attract others to you. Everyone enjoys being with a soul who overflows with love, for love attracts love.

　　停止竭力追求任何事，而僅僅只是允許事情去展開。不要讓焦慮捆綁我，和蒙蔽我，而是學習去將我所有的負擔都交予上天，這樣我就可以自由地行使上天的意願，行在上天的道上。上天無法使用我，當我被自己捆綁起來，見樹不見林（指只見細節不見全面）時，所以要放鬆、放手。安靜並停留在生活中的奇蹟之中。讓我的意念與上天在一起。

　　睜開我的雙眼，在萬物中看見上天，並抱有永恆的感恩。當我能夠在萬物中看見上天時，我的內心是如此的盈滿，我都無法不去感恩；它只是從我之中滿溢了出來。我無法將一顆充滿了愛與感恩的心藏起來，因為它就是為了被反映給所有人去看的。當我在一個喜悅與感恩的狀態中時，我會將其他人吸引過來。每一個人都享受與一位有著滿溢的愛的靈魂在一起，因為愛會吸引愛。
