10 reminders from God

May 13, 2008

Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba reminds us:

1. QUIT WORRYING:

Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and worry. Have you

forgotten that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for

you? Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes

your way?

2. PUT IT ON THE LIST:

Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not

YOUR list. Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care

of the problem. I can't help you until you turn it over to Me. And

although My to-do-list is long, I am after all...God. I can take care

of anything you put into My hands. In fact, if the truth were ever

really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you never

even realize.

3. TRUST ME:

Once you've given your burdens to Me, quit trying to take them back.

Trust in Me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs,

your problems and your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on

My list. Problem with finances? Put it on My list. Problems with

your emotional roller coaster? For My sake, put it on My list. I

want to help you. All you have to do is ask.

4. LEAVE IT ALONE:

Don't wake up one morning and say, " Well, I'm feeling much stronger

now, I think I can handle it from here. " Why do you think you are

feeling stronger now? It's simple. You gave Me your burdens and I'm

taking care of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in my

peace. Don't you know that if I give you these problems back, you

will be right back where you started? Leave them with Me and forget

about them. Just let Me do my job.

5. TALK TO ME:

I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making you

crazy. Forget the worry and the fretting because you know I'm in

control. But there's one thing I pray you never forget. Please, don't

forget to talk to Me - OFTEN! I love YOU! I want to hear your voice.

I want you to include Me on the things going on in your life. I

want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer is

simply you having a conversation with Me. I want to be your dearest

friend.

6. HAVE FAITH:

I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see from where you

are. Have faith in Me that I know what I'm doing. Trust Me; you

wouldn't want the view from My eyes. I will continue to care for you,

watch over you, and meet your needs. You only have to trust Me.

Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems as if you have

so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?

7. SHARE:

You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did

you forget? That rule still applies. Share with those who are less

fortunate than you. Share your joy with those who need encouragement.

Share your laughter with those who haven't heard any in such a long

time. Share your tears with those who have forgotten how to cry.

Share your faith with those who have none.

8. BE PATIENT:

I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so many

diverse experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children,

change jobs many times, learn many trades, travel to so many places,

meet thousands of people, and experience so much. How can you be so

impatient then when it takes Me a little longer than you expect to

handle something on My to-do-list? Trust in My timing, for My timing

is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in an

instant , everyone thinks I should always rush, rush, rush.

9. BE KIND:

Be kind to others, for I love them just as much as I love you. They

may not dress like you, or talk like you, or live the same way you

do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for My sake.

I created each of you different in some way. It would be too boring

if you were all identical. Please, know I love each of your

differences.

10. LOVE YOURSELF:

As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself? You were created

by me for one reason only -- to be loved, and to love in return. I

am a God of Love. Love Me. Love your neighbors. But also love

yourself. It makes My heart ache when I see you so angry with

yourself when things go wrong. You are

very precious to me. Don't ever forget......
