Things don’t always go as planned, but they always work together for our good. So, for example, let’s say that a relationship ends abruptly. It may feel like there’s a betrayal or a loss. That may be very upsetting.
AND, what if you knew that in a few months time, perhaps a year, you’d discover how that person leaving the relationship was a huge blessing to you?
Years ago, a friend was blindsided when his wife left him for a close friend. It was humiliating. They’d had a secret affair and it was devastating to my friend when he found out. The way that his wife handled the whole thing was insensitive to how intense it was to have the affair exposed to all their friends and family.
My friend bravely got through it. I said to him six months later, “In a year from now you are going to be SO HAPPY that she left you. You’ll find someone new who will love, adore and appreciate you and you’ll be grateful that she left and made room for a much better relationship.”
It took about 18 months, and yes, indeed he was now grateful and in a new relationship with a much better suited partner.
I don’t know what anything is for. That’s A Course in Miracles Lesson #25 and it’s helped me thousands of times when I feel upset and confused by things.
I can surrender my attachment to making meaning of things.
Until I can see through all directions of time and space, and understand the causation of all things, how could I possibly know what all things are for? It’s absolute insanity for me to think I could know.
Things happen that make no sense at all. And when confronted with challenges of situations and circumstances that are non-sensical, we must turn to faith in God and a willingness to KNOW that we are loved and being cared for.
When things are not to our liking, the ego mind can go to the false concept that we’re being punished, but that’s not how God works.
We don’t really know what things are for except they are for our good. In this, there are no exceptions. A willingness to KNOW this bring the awareness of that. Truth is always liberating. Always and eternally.
I don’t know what anything is for, but I’d like to.
I don’t know what anything is for, and it’s for my highest and best.
I don’t know what anything is for, and I can trust that it’s for my good!
Today, I get to practice knowing the truth that sets me free. Today is a day to relax the mind into accepting what is and calling it good and very good whether I like it or not! Today is a day that I can rest in the knowing that I AM Loved.
