When You Can't Change Others

Let's face it...the only person you have control of is yourself. So what do you do when people close to you insist on repeating behaviors that you've asked them not to. If you love them and are in a fairly honorable relationship with them, the only thing you can do is work on your own thoughts, feelings, and actions. First of all, consider if you are overreacting to the situation. Is it that big of a deal? Are you making a mountain out of a mole hill? Examine your need to control a situation and its outcome. Are you allowing the other person to live his life in a way that suits him? You can always use spiritual help during this time in an effort to gain inner and outer peace. Call upon Spirit and the angels to heal the situation in the highest and best way after explaining how you feel about it. Ask them to help you gain peace and surrender the situation to God. Allow flexibility and understand that everything is in divine order for a purpose.

I let go and let God. I am eternally at peace in all situations. I actively listen and communicate with others. I let people know how I feel in an honest way and release the outcome as necessary. I pray for guidance.
