Leave the care of your affairs to me and everything will be peaceful. I say to you in truth that every act of true, blind, complete surrender to me produces the effect that you desire and resolves all difficult situations. O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times) Concluding prayer: Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus." -Servant of God Don Dolindo Ruotolo  "If Jesus wouldn't say it to you, you shouldn't say it to yourself." - @Hannahlubutler "Death and life are in the power of the tongue." - Proverbs 18:21  "A word for someone.. your life.. your life is about to be unrecognizable. Where God is taking you is going to shock everyone. There is a whole new you that is about to emerge from the dark and broken places. It's time to say goodbye to that old cocoon. You can no longer be there. It's time to fly, child of God. It's time to take hold of the land and all the glory that comes with it." -@Godlywaiting "The more you slow down the faster you go." - @jonhillstead "What a beautiful thing to know that if you're still breathing, God is still working. That the God who made you has great plans for you and that He isn't done with you." - @becoming__better

View your mind like traffic that has nothing to do with you. Traffic that's on the other side of the road. The kind of traffic that makes you say, 'whooo! Glad I'm not going that way!" Don't get involved with it. You're not stuck in it. You're simply watching it. Every time a thought approaches, ask yourself, 'to whom does this thought come?' And pause... listen. The answer is the silence. The mind stops and leaves you in the remembrance, in the recognition that you were never out of Love... you weren't living in the outskirts of the Kingdom. YOU ARE THE KINGDOM. You're Home, in the City of God. And as long as you're feeling Love inside of you, you'll be consciously aware of Love manifest all around you... as you.

Even if for a few seconds. It's hard isn't it? This is the reason you have to ask yourself, 'To whom do these thoughts come?' It's only a modality to cause you to stop thinking." -Robert Adams "You cannot see anyone, the face of God is all that shines. The Soul of God looks out through all eyes."  - Joel Goldsmith  "None but ourselves can free our minds."  -Bob Marley

Never hold a thought, never drop the Thread. Watch and listen to your mind. Notice when it's doing what it does. Notice its judgements, criticisms, projections, conclusions. Don't react. Don't respond. Don't try to stop them. Just notice. And then notice what else is present. Listen to the Silence that the thoughts are coming and going in. Feel that Silence... Joy, Love... the Bliss of the Self. When you feel this Bliss, It puts the thoughts on transparency mode (like your noise canceling headphones). Now you're no longer hypnotized by thinking... It's not the only thing you can hear. Now you can also hear the Silence! You can feel the Thread. And It feels good. Don't drop It.

You have the right; it’s your inner domain. But instead of finding silence, you’re going to listen to incessant chatter: “Why am I doing this? I have more important things to do. This is a waste of time. There’s nobody in here but me. What’s this all about?” Right on cue, there’s your roommate. You may have a clear intention to be quiet inside, but your roommate won’t cooperate. And it’s not just when you try to be quiet. It has something to say about everything you look at: “I like it. I don’t like it. This is good. That’s bad.” It just talks and talks. You don’t generally notice because you don’t step back from it. You’re so close that you don’t realize that you’re actually hypnotized into listening to it. Basically, you’re not alone in there. There are two distinct aspects of your inner being. The first is you, the awareness, the witness, the center of your willful intentions; and the other is that which you watch. The problem is, the part that you watch never shuts up. If you could get rid of that part, even for a moment, the peace and serenity would be the nicest vacation you’ve ever had." -Singer, Michael A.. The Untethered Soul (p. 17)

This isn’t old, it’s eternal. ______________ You: "Jesus, you take care of it... take care of everything." Jesus: "Say those words again, but this time like you're speaking them to someone in the room. I don't want dead words.  Vain repetitions-- meaning words without Love, words that feel like they're going into an abyss. You are My heart, and hearts feel, hearts Love. And that is My Will for you-- to keep Me warm with (y)our Love,  to keep Me company,  and to recognize that I Am your only company. Keep trusting and saying, "Jesus, you take care of it."  And know that I have. "   I Love you, nik  nikki@curlynikki.com Our Next 9-Day Surrender Challenge will begin on Monday, August 19th!

You hesitate to carry the cross because your nature seeks joy But how can you have joy if you don't carry the cross? Many souls would like to choose their own crosses and to make them light. When they do this by themselves, their crosses become much heavier instead, causing great distress and discouragement. Unite yourself to the Divine Will and bear your daily crosses with patience, courage, and submission. Trust in me, for I am your Simon of Cyrene. I will help you. What good are impatience and rebellion? Why must you seek your will in everything, when this can only cause you problems? Live with patience, and you shall live in peace. I give you my blessing." - Father Ruotolo Dolindo, Meditations on the Rosary  "If God seems quiet right now, remember that no one shouts when they're right next to you." - @David_ford_ I can find peace in the middle of a storm and walk on what is trying to drown me." - @kingofsolomon

This isn’t old, it’s eternal. ______________ God is speaking to you.  He's always speaking to you.  But the sound of His Voice is silence, and if you could learn to translate It,  to understand It,  you'd hear Him saying, "Surrender. Surrender. Surrender." Like a mantra.  (T)His Silence is a mantra,  reminding you of your purpose in every moment-- to surrender.  You can't just surrender once.  That's not how it works.  You have to surrender in every moment.  When you turn to God,  it's your turn,  your time,  you are His. "Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine." - Isaiah 43:1 And you say,  "Oh my Jesus,  I surrender myself to you, take care of everything." And you trust in those words, until they become an experience, until He shows that He can be trusted with EVERYTHING.  You don't have to hold it all together,  He will.  Because He Is.  I Love you I Love you I Love you I Love you,  nik  nikki@curlynikki.com Please support the show: ▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings ▶▶ Cash App $NikWalton  __________________________________________ "Your life is about to take a beautiful turn." - @wetheurban  "God answering prayers you prayed years ago.

You don't have to hold it all together, I WILL." - @rock_solid _ministries_intl "The wind is blowing. Miracles are in bloom. Your promise is closer. I need you to push. And I don't mean to fight it until your energy is gone. I mean to trust like never before. I mean to persevere despite the storm in front of you. Obedience is key in this hour." -@Godlywaiting "God is in the midst. The labor pains are hard, but you're almost there. I see delivery. I see dead things resurrecting. I see everything happening all at once. Shock will set in and you'll fall to your knees in worship. The Father is coming. The impossible is possible." -@Godlywaiting "Wherever you turn, God sees you! Whether you ascend into the heavens, whether you sink into the abyss, God always sees you! He sees you, but his glance is infinite love because he is present to sustain your life, to help you, to fill you with the graces of which you yourself are not even aware. God sees you, even more, in him you are and you move; this is a great mercy. You ought to exult in the thought of being always in the presence of your God and in the meantime you forget it completely. You not only forget him, but you live as if God did not exist, even under his glance, with the strength which he gives you, with the freedom which he grants you..." - A Month With Mary, by Father Ruotolo Dolindo  "Beloved, May I remember: As I serve the truth, The truth will serve me." - Isha Das

Surrender looks like Love.    "No eye has seen,  no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love Him." - 1 Corinthians 2:9   "Is Love here, too?"  That's what you ask. That's what you feel, right next to the panic. And you breathe into the panic, the way you would breathe into labor pains, and you give birth to God. You give birth to Love in your world, into your problems, into your relationships, into your business, into that office. You have to learn to remain calm. You have to learn that everything is okay, even when it looks like it's not. You have to remember to say, 'Jesus, you take care of it,  I surrender myself to you,  take care of everything,  I love you.' And then feel His Love.  He Loves you.  I know you've heard that you've read that you may even believe It,  but do you feel It? You HAVE to feel It. And then things HAVE to change.  I love you, I love you, I love you, nik nikki@curlynikki.com Please support the show: ▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings ▶▶ Cash App $NikWalton  __________________________________________ There's no one that was more humble than He was. And so I have to remember that everything that I have is because of Him -- everything that I went through was to get to this point where I surrendered to Him." -Jonathan Roumie  "I've found that surrender leads to salvation in every way possible. Your self-reliance won't cure you; your willpower won't save you. Your independence will not deliver you from that which seeks to destroy your faith in God, erode your hope in Christ or corrode your love for the Holy Spirit and humanity itself" - Jonathan Roumie  "There is a place right before surrender... where I just didn't know what else to do." - @its.all.god.dude
