“Peace on the outside comes from knowing God on the inside.” -Author Unknown

When something excellent happens to us we affirm, “Thank God!” (By the path, whatever your thought or beliefs of what God is, i.e. Allah, Higher Ability etc. Just substitute it where I employ God, and for those of you who don’t believe in God, sorry and excellent luck.) Immediately where was I, oh yes, when excellent things happen we are so pleased and we thank God for this or that blessing.

However…when things go terrible we inquiry why God would do something like this to us. How could God be so cruel knowing how much we wanted this relationship and how extended we’ve waited for it, or he knows you needed and wanted a certain job, or a particular house or after all of the years you’ve given to this person immediately they are gone, or whatever it is, how dare God rip this away from you and not give you what you wanted.

Well, has it ever occurred to you that maybe this person or job or body wasn’t the best body in your lifetime however you simply couldn’t see it for whatever cause, either since you are so blinded by your emotions or you are paralyzed by the dread of not having it and your lifetime changing from the familiar to the unknown is more than you can bare?

Many times you will see the signs however you ignore what you see. Deep down you know this isn’t exactly fair for you however you’d rather deny what you see so you can still have what YOU reckon is the best for you rather than telling yourself the truth and risking losing what YOU believe is so wonderful.

The writing is on the wall staring you in the face however you are so worried to lose for many reasons; you don’t desire to commence over, you inquiry your self-worth wondering what is incorrect with you that this person didn’t desire you or left you. You commence to believe that nothing will ever employment outside for you and you lose hope for a bigger prospect etc.

And, has is ever occurred to you that maybe, just maybe, God has something bigger in store for you and since you don’t trust in God or the lifetime action you fight “what is” and then you suffer.

Instead of blaming God, why not trust that this is simply part of your journey through lifetime? Perhaps there is some major lesson YOU needed to learn and this person or circumstance entered your lifetime so you can learn and grow from it.

However when you blame God for your problems it shows that you may not know what the journey through lifetime is all about. Let’s face I, there isn’t one single person on earth who hasn’t experienced heartache, pain, loss, betrayal etc. However what does God have to do with it?

Remember, you made the choice to be with this person when you probably knew you shouldn’t have, God didn’t energy you to be with them. You chose to walk down a certain path when the signs where pointing you in another direction.

Or, maybe the signs were all excellent and you believed this to be the best body. Well guess what? Does that mean that it’s God’s fault that you didn’t get that job or the person or the house you wanted? That’s lifetime. Period.

And, until you can learn to accept alter you will suffer every age being attached to an outcome that didn’t employment outside the path you wanted and get clear on one body, that is your choice. If you desire to suffer then go ahead or, you can know with every fiber in your being that God is guiding you to a bigger place if you let him.

Adversity enters your lifetime and you become a stronger, wiser person. Many times it is this exact adversity that brings you closer to God rather than distancing you from him. However acceptance is what you do when you have faith and trust.

Having faith in God and lifetime and like is a gift you give yourself. Capture age each day to silent your intellect and listen for God’s guidance. Learn to go within to connect with the like, peace and harmony that are already in your lifetime. And each day, no affair what happens you will be blessed with the grace that only comes when you truly believe.

Let go of the past hurts and disappointments. Forgive whomever and whatever has caused you pain and release it. Go on to a place that will bring you the kind of joy and like that is yours already and that you so richly deserve to familiarity. It all comes down to choosing.

Remember the days when every small body your spouse did was adorable and romantic? Remember how you called all of your friends to gush about him and how cute he looked or how thoughtful he seemed? Flash forward to the present day, when you’re more likely to focus on what she hasn’t done for you lately. Certain, you’re still calling your friends about her, however what you’re saying immediately bears small resemblance to the early days. What once started as just the two of you is immediately a house, two cars, a dog, two kids, and countless bills to pay and chores to do. It’s dense to keep everything running smoothly, however it’s relatively simple to lose sight of why you chose that person in the first place. That’s why anniversaries are so vital. They are an annual reminder to slow down, delight in each other, and celebrate everything you’ve done and where you’re going.

Sarah on “celebrating no affair what”

“I’ll admit that I’ve fallen into that common trap of blowing off my anniversary if it’s not a particularly huge one. Fourth anniversary? Nobody really makes a huge deal about that one, fair? It’s simple to forget about it when it’s not a huge one, however the truth is that it takes so small age to plot something nice for your spouse and it makes him/her feel so loved and special. It doesn’t have to be huge, however cooking a special meal or dragging outside the wedding video can be a path to celebrate your lifetime together. We’re coming up on our tenth anniversary this year, so I’m plotting a fun surprise.”

Alicia on “having a cause to celebrate”

“I like celebrating. I’m the type that would much throw an Arbor Day party if I thought human beings might come, so when it’s my anniversary, I go all outside. I’ve been known to celebrate an entire birthday week, so parties and celebrations are certainly my body. Luckily, my husband likes celebrations also, and he’s just as willing to plot something special. Some years, we much turn it into a fun competition to see who can outromance and outplan the other.”

Here are a three other ways you can celebrate your marriage:

1. Dig outside the Photos.

You probably spent a attractive penny on the photography at your wedding, so break outside the album and delight in looking through it together. A fantastic path to celebrate each fresh anniversary is by making a fresh album each year that chronicles what you’ve done together and how you’ve grown. As the years, and the albums, add up, it is a nice reminder of all of the things you’ve accomplished together. It doesn’t have to be a huge one, and if all of your photos are digital, you can constitute a photo textbook in a affair of minutes.

2. Place pen to paper.

You don’t demand to be Shakespeare to inscribe a like letter. It’s such a simple body, however it can mean so much. It costs nothing however your age and energy and is such a special path to share the things you like about your spouse. One thought is to share a quality or trait that you like about that person for every year you’ve been married.

3. Don’t Forget Friends and Family.

They were there for your engagement and your wedding, so why not involve your closest friends and family in your anniversary celebrations? You don’t demand to be renewing your vows with an Elvis impersonator to invite them. It can be a simple backyard BBQ or night outside on the town, however it’s a meaningful path to involve all of those closest to you.
