Super late to the bandwagon but I guess I’m now running with the instagramming pack. And: if 2016 was the year in which I began to see myself less of a burden and more of a sunshine, 2017 is the year in which I’m finally learning to receive. From beds, to meals, to music and bookmaking lessons, to buckets of advice, to tickets for gigs that changed my life, to countless lifts and fixed bike tyres, to time and art and love and helping hands that saved my life in more ways than one, it’s all been given to me, and I am more humbled and grateful and overwhelmed by the sheer vastness of loveliness bestowed upon my quivering self than I could ever hope to put into words.

Better Than I Expected

Jan. 07, 2024 ~ Thursday

Dear God,

We had board game night yesterday. It turned out better than I expected.

Subconsciously, anxiety was already getting to me this whole time. My bad expectations came from that anxiety. I don't know if it's because our board game bonding with my cousins is a good thing and my anxiety gives me a hard time believing that good things will last. It's saying "This is to good to be true. Something wrong is bound to happen here."

Wow. Talk about wanting to learn to relax better this year.

My husband helps ground me in reality by offering me perspective. He uses words like "benefit of the doubt". That's also what I need sometimes.

True enough, things turned out great, and we had a lot of fun. It felt good to be surrounded by people who just want to enjoy a good card game/board game with you.

At the back of my mind, my anxiety is saying "But what if something goes wrong?"

To myself I say, I don't want that worry to ruin the good thing I have received. Someone did something good to me. By God's Grace, I will let it in. I will let it calm me. I will receive.

Spirit always has what you need, all you have to do is let it in. Learn to do this bit by bit, through examining your beliefs around receiving, having and letting in good. #prosperity #learningtoreceive #trustingod
