whatever we believe in how do you do
that I used to watch these videos too
and they would say that be
like how are you going to explain that
like come on now but
surrender you know what that word means
don't play
down if you're in the midst of battle in
the midst of chaos and you decide to
surrender what does that look like go
ahead and visualize that for a second
okay now well go ahead and apply that to
your own
life so many of us are resisting what
life brings our way we are constantly in
a battle with not only our thoughts but
the people the experiences everything in
our life nothing is in alignment with
what we truly
desire I'm not talking about these fake
desires these fakes wants and these fake
needs I'm talking about something that
you constantly think about every day
it's basically what's giving you fuel to
deal with the outside world it's in your
heart nothing is placed in your heart
for no
reason it's not placed there for no
reason if it's not hurting anybody it's
not harming anybody and it makes you
feel good then what's the issue here
we're so used to throwing ourselves to
the side and we think our lives should
look a specific way because we're trying
to gain something whether that's
Security Financial Security whatever it
is we've got all random things going on
in the psyche because we've been through
a lot right and it's hard to hear the
truth when we've been fed so many lies
but you have to realize that
surrendering is Letting Go you have to
believe that you that's it you have to
believe you have to believe that
everything's going to work out for
you if you believe in God you have to
believe that once you let go control of
your life all the things God is going to
play something better in your
life but a lot of people don't want to
make those decisions because they're
scared they lack the faith that they
will actually be supported in the end
I'm not saying that's bad it's not bad
to to have doubts but you have to know
where you're at along the journey and
you have to realize that yeah nobody in
a video is going to be able to tell you
exactly how to do this they're not going
to say oh yeah that's the perfect
decision to make no you have to be led
by your own judgment and your judgment
is not going to be clear enough until
you get clear until you stop doing
that doesn't serve you you need to stop
that you need to stop distracting
yourself stop giving in to people and
things
that are not of the highest good do you
get me you have to get really clear on
how you're living your life otherwise
your judgment is going to be so clouded
you're not going to know what decision
to make all the decisions that you think
you have to make are going to be every
everybody else's opinions you're going
to have to filter filter through so many
voices in your head how are you going to
know which one is is the right one but
you have to
remember if you're even if you've even
gotten this far the seeds are being
planted or you know you're about to make
decision whatever this is how this is
how it all
works you have to just accept where you
are on the journey and realize that this
is about you putting a blindfold on and
taking a
leap and trusting that it's all going to
work out in your favor nobody knows what
your destiny is I don't know what your
destiny is I don't know what you're good
at I don't know what you do you know
that nobody is going to be able to tell
you they can guide you like I said they
can plant the seeds they can inspire you
but you have to walk the walk you have
to open the doors you have to do
what it takes in order to meet
yourself meet God you know you have to
stretch your faith I've been doing this
by taking little
steps here and there towards desires
that I've truly wanted not really
knowing the outcome I had lots of fear
but I just continued regardless of the
fear and if things don't work out the
way that you think they should cuz
that's the thing you're living in your
head and your mind and you're listening
to the thoughts and they're so limited
compared to God Source
Universe your thoughts are so limited
compared to God Source Universe whatever
it is that you believe in so
limited so that's why it's important
that you let
go because you don't know what to
do so stop acting like you do I know
that people like to control the outcome
because I used to do this I used to do
this because I really lacked stability
in my life I never had stability I was
always walking on eggshells I was always
scared a fragile child and
I I was lost in here because I had no
one to look to on the outside that was
doing the right thing so I felt very
alone like in the ocean you get me so as
I've gotten older I've been very I like
to know what's going on why is happening
I like to dissect all these issues you
get what I'm saying but that is such a
headache and you do not have to stress
yourself out to the
max just to find peace because that's
not where your peace is going to come
from I also want to emphasize that you
might be Desiring to be in a certain
situation or have specific things but
you have to realize that you're not
going to find your bliss or your freedom
here peace is not going to come from
these things you might feel temporary
you know fulfillment because you're
finally getting what you've wanted it's
here but how many blessings do you need
to start believing that this is for you
you don't receive these blessings in
order to feel freedom I mean yes but you
have to realize that feeling freedom is
happening right now all the things that
you truly desire you can feel them right
now in this moment that's hard to tell
somebody who doesn't have money who
doesn't have food trust me I get you I'm
literally talking about survival needs
right now and that's exactly what I'm
speaking on is even if you don't have
the food even if you don't have the
money even if you don't have this if
you're able to watch this video you're
not you're not in such a bad situation
as you think if you're able to hop on
YouTube and watch this video do you get
what I'm saying you have to realize your
blessings you have to become aware of
where you're being guided what you're
constantly listening to all this is
really important in your journey and you
just have to spend more time with
yourself more time in solitude you have
to be in the silence to be changed
forever we do not like to sit in silence
because it's scary right when's the last
time you actually sat in your own
silence which is with yourself and we're
so scared of ourselves we're so scared
of ourselves I don't know if it's
because we're slightly um scared of our
own potential or what's going on or if
we just don't like to look at the things
that we've endured but you have to
realize that this is the way I I found
my way through my own suffering I don't
know if there's other ways to do it but
I made peace with my suffering I wasn't
trying to resist I wasn't trying to to
be better than I just felt like
like I'm just going to be completely
real with you right now if you're trying
to like Elevate and feel better about
yourself this is how I did it this is
how I did it this is how I let go I just
when I felt like a piece of I just
went ahead and felt that and I hugged
myself and I cared about myself and I
told myself hey I'm here I'm here to
take care of you I'm here to listen I'm
here here to I'm here like I know that
people couldn't be there for you in the
past I know that people didn't listen to
you I know that people just shoved you
to the side and said next like but you
have to show up for
yourself you know you got to be that
person that nobody could be for
you and I know that sucks cuz we don't
even believe in that part of ourselves
that's why we're chasing everything
outside of us to prove our worth and
make us seem like my life is sck stable
I'm going somewhere I got
Direction God do you hear me I I've been
praying but like I said how many
blessings do you need in order to
believe that this that you're chosen for
a life of freedom and Bliss and peace
and you can you can access this through
all things you don't need anything to
feel this and once you get into that
state where you're not placing anything
on a pedestal you're not putting
importance on things outside of yourself
you automatically put yourself in a
vibration where you're able to
receive you're able to receive but it's
not about gaining
anything that is just a byproduct of
being in a space where you realize that
you are protected and you are
safe does that make sense I hope that
makes sense but
um yeah that was a lot of talking and I
think I jumped like back and forth
everywhere the
uh I'm pretty much in a flow State when
I do these so there is no structure so
just yeah we're all swimming together
okay um anyways yeah I hope you're good
bye
