Calendars Today by Lois
Fear is the greatest roadblock to trust. Trust
in others and life itself follows once you begin
to trust yourself more and fear yourself less.
Today give up the need to over structure
your life. Learn to wait when you need to
wait, knowing that you are receptive to the
inspiration of inner guidance. Waiting will allow
you to receive what you need to live a better life.
Waiting brings you the strength to give.
Today reclaim the lead in your life. Each day
ask for continued inspiration and guidance
from your higher power.
