CHANGE YOUR WAYS

Memo from GOD....

Effective immediately, please be aware that there are changes YOU need to make in YOUR life. These changes need to be completed in order that I may fulfill My promises to you to grant you peace, joy and happiness in this life. I apologize for any inconvenience, but after all that I am doing,this seems very little to ask of you. I know, I already gave you the 10
Commandments. Keep them. But follow these guidelines, also.

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
in 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 only six days, 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 that!


With all My heart I love YOU!

~God ~
