Don’t Sweat Small Stuff

by Rev. Lorraine Merritt, O.M.C.

Rev. Lorraine MerrittDon’t sweat small stuff…

Don’t sweat small…

Don’t sweat…

Don’t…

Do!

If I sit still and listen, the answer always comes. Even when it comes as if it were a tutorial.

I had begun this day with a concern. My concern was with a friend, who had taken a fall, and on, and on.­­.. I had no control — not that I wanted any — over the outcome. I was in a bit of distress and spoke directly to Holy Spirit. As Always, “Holy Spirit, please direct me in this. I will go where I am led. I will do what I am led to do. I will say what I am led to say. Please bring me to Peace.” And, instantly, the above words came. I immediately went to Forgiveness. This took all of about two minutes when I hung up the phone from my friend’s niece.

I am very quick to advise others to “close the history book” when faced with a perceived dilemma. I chose to open my history book concerning my friend and began shaking my head over her actions and my perception of the outcome of those actions. Well! How quickly I forgot my own words. However, I did remember I could choose again, and I chose Holy Spirit.

I called her niece back and offered any support she might need, in any area. I suggested she make a list of any questions and concerns, when she knew more. We set up a tentative date to have an in person meeting to address all of this.

I am sitting here thinking of how many other observations I could have made today — from my history book — had I not chosen to walk with Holy Spirit. The opportunities for Forgiveness present themselves over and over again in a never ending stream, on a daily basis.

I walk in Peace, not chaos.
