Sitting 171: Help when all seems lost

Beloved brother there are times during this earth life when everything seems to be in complete disorder and there is no possible way that things will sort themselves out. Suddenly someone or something will intervene in an unexpected way and everything works out just fine for all concerned.

The opposite can also happen when everything is working out wonderfully well when some small thing goes wrong and you are suddenly faced with disaster.

You ponder on what has happened and you fret and worry for days or weeks or months or years and you allow these events to change the course of your life, sometimes to the detriment of yourself and also those around you to such an extent that it affects the quality of your life.

Instead of picking yourself up and starting out all over again you accept defeat and complain that life has not been good to you and leave it at that.

Beloved siblings have you not heard of the young man who started up in business for himself and it failed.

The following day he started up another business which also failed. For fifty-three times he started up a new venture and after a while it became a joke to everyone around him that he was always starting up a new business.
