Limitations


When we accept our limitations and know that things will go wrong -- and we cannot always prevent it -- we are more able to cope with problems when they arise.

your life becomes full of limitations.

Limitations


We need to recognize life's limitations, particularly our own. That doesn't mean that we neglect to do our best. On the contrary, it means gaining a clearer understanding of what God expects us to do with the time He entrusts to us.

Letting Go


Done with awareness, life is
letting go of fears,
letting go of guilt,
letting go of limitations,
letting go of ideas that trap you in the patterns of habit and do not leave you free to be spontaneous in the moment.

See What I Mean?

... people can see things about me that I cannot see myself. (Iyanla Vanzant, Until Today! 24 March)

You should also watch out for those things that irritate you in other people; when you see them in yourself, get rid of them. (Thomas 'A Kempis, The Imitation Of Christ, Book 1, Chapter 25, p. 60)

Throughout our entire lives we come face-to-face with our limitations. (The Upper Room Disciplines - 2008, 28 July)

Our lives can be filled with miraculous surprises if we pay attention to the moments of grace. (The Upper Room Disciplines - 2003, 26 July)

I must not let myself go in resentments, hates, fears, pride, lust, or gossip. (Twenty-Four Hours A Day, 11 April)
