Never waste time and energy wishing you were somewhere else, doing something else. Accept your situation and realise you are where you are, doing what you are doing, for a very specific reason. Realise that nothing is by chance, that you have certain lessons to learn and that the situation you are in has been given to you to enable you to learn those lessons as quickly as possible, so that you can move onward and upward along this spiritual path. Surely you do not want to get stuck in a rut, no matter how safe and secure that rut may appear to be! Think how dull and uninteresting life would be if a rut were your choice. Life is full of excitement and expectancy when you are willing to move ahead fearlessly into the unknown and take the next step in absolute faith and confidence with Me as your guide and companion. Fear not; I AM with you always.
永遠不要將時間浪費在,希望自己在另一個地方,做著其他的事情。接納我的處境,並意識到,我之所以在我所處的地方,做著我所做的事情,是因為一個特別的原因。要意識到,沒有什麼事情是偶然發生的,我有一些特定的課題需要去學習,而我所在的處境使我能夠盡快地去學習這些課題,因此讓我能在這靈性道路上繼續向上向前。
當然我不會想要墨守成規,無論它看上去多麼的安全與安穩!想一想生活會變得多麼的枯燥無趣,如果墨守成規是我的選擇。生活是充滿期待與激動人心的,當我願意無懼地向前進入未知,並在絕對的信念與信心中與上天一起,作為我的嚮導與同伴,邁出下一步時。不要懼怕;上天一直與我在一起。
