The Best Advice and it took me 50 years to get the depth of it!
Get the deep importance of this ~ you will be way ahead of me
The Key to Joy-Faith-Peace-Love-Freedom
Dedicated to Mom, the Best most Graceful Soul I have ever known!
The picture is Mom Holding me. Love you Mom, may you rest in Peace.
When Something didn’t go my way and I was really upset about it,
Mom would softly say:
“Everything Happens for a reason and
things always have a way of working out for the best”
Back then, it would only minimally help and I would go away and churn over what had happened anyway.
A big example was when my first Love broke up with me at 17.
I turned into a Zombie and didn’t talk to anyone at school and barely spoke at home for over 2 weeks. Churning over: “What did I do”, “What could I have done differently”, “Should have I done this or that” and so on…
Now I know she was insecure, I was immature and it wouldn’t have mattered what I did. I am better off with the lesson that was gained through this pain.
To finish the story, I told her about 2 other guys that thought she was “hot”. With this information, she took turns dating both of them, one for about a month and the other about the same couple of months that she dated me.
I have no hard feelings toward her, I forgive her completely and hope she is well, happy and healthy.
Important side note:
Don’t churn over things!
Turns out the biggest cause of Anxiety and Depression is Rumination.
I pray that this may help you get out of that natural behavior.
Focus your energy on the good in your life.
Don’t fall into negativity.
Don’t over focus on whatever is making things seem difficult in your life
Romans 8:28
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
It took me 50 years and I had to lose Mom and Grow in Faith to get this
The best lesson Mom (or anyone) taught me!
“Everything happens for a reason and things always have a way of working out for the best”
This was her way of teaching me ROMANS 8:28
Picture is Mom and her oldest Grandkids
She loved them so much!
Before she passed,
She asked me to not let my kids forget her
I’m trying Mom – We all Love and miss you.
Now, with me sharing her story in several links on this site
I hope that her Grace and Love extends to you
We, Mom and I wish you

The Depth:
Looking back on my life, I can see situations and times where I was disappointed and didn’t get what I wanted.
Now, I see that I was Loved and protected across my entire life.
If I would have had what I wanted, things would have worked out in a worse direction.
When I graduated from the college graduate program at Ford,
I interviewed and picked my #1 job and thought for sure I’d get it.
I was so disappointed when I got placed in my #2 choice.
It was such a blessing!
I would have had to work terrible hours and have to travel so much more.
Starting a family, I was able to get off work to raise my kids, coach their sports and play my sports.
The job fit me better as well.
I had 32 patents and promoted to management.
Then got to hire and mentor some great young engineers.
My severe disappointment at the moment turned out better in more ways than I could have known!
And it took me years to see it.
I’ve been guided and protected for sure.
I used to believe that I didn’t always deserved it,
but God did!
We need to give ourself a break.
I think we are harder on ourselves than God is.
Church has lied to us in so many ways.
Jesus broke it down very simple:
Love thy God and Love thy neighbor as thy self.
Love doesn’t always = kindness
Sometimes Love = Truth (When delivered with Love)
In addition,
Love sometimes means loving yourself enough to not be taken advantage of.
Love thy neighbor as thyself doesn’t mean Love thy neighbor more than thy self.
I feel that some may have needed to hear the message above.
It is our responsibility to know we are loved and all things work out for our best.
Look for the lesson!
I like the analogy of a small child that wants to touch the hot stove.
A loving Father will strongly say No! and not allow it.
The child may cry and be severely disappointed.
However it was a loving Father that protected and did what was best for the Child.
View yourself as the Child and Your Heavenly Father as a Loving Father that is protecting you.
If you keep having the same problems, then You have a lesson to learn that you are not learning.
The “world / devil” tries to twist your hardship into someone else’s fault.
Where you are the victim and it’s never your fault.
This keeps you in a low vibrational frequency of weakness.
Instead, look for the lesson.
It takes strength to take responsibility and make better choices.
You can have Strength, Joy, Love and Peace right now
Life is a Mirror, you get what you give
Have you heard these?
Energy flows where attention Goes
Just decide
Give your problems to God
Focus on him and what is good in your life.
Hug your family, be Grateful for what you have and for the Joy that the Truth of Jesus brings
Know that you are loved
The more you focus on good things, the more you will manifest loving good things.
Know that you are powerful
Know that your Heavenly Father Loves you and has your best interest at Heart
Jesus said: “you will do greater works than I”
John 14:12
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”
King James Version (KJV)
The video below came to me the same night I completed this post.
It perfectly aligns with this great advice from Mom and helps explain how to manifest this
I hope and pray it helps you, enjoy:
Boy, after listening to this Abraham hic
David Ayer I have a lot of work to do.
