Ego=Edging God Out

I loved this when I heard this because it is so true.
Ego = Edging God Out, the more ego you have the less room God has to work in your life.

I remember talking to my cousin a while back and she asked me if I seen the warning signs with my ex husband from the beginning.
YES!! After a month of us living together he came home and said he didn't like my two best friends, my two childhood best friends and the only two friends I had in Florida.

He said one was a whore and my other best friend was gay and he didn't want to hang out with "these people" He said what would people think of me? Hanging out with people like this.

He told me to make a choice them or him. Now if I was in New York and he said this I would have said "Hit the road buddy!" But I had just sold my business, I rented out my house, I moved 1800 miles to be with him, I even gave my dog away to be with this man.

I told everyone I was in love, that this was the one, how was I suppose to go home with my tail between my legs and say "Oops! Thought he was the one, but phych! Not!"

Oh hell no, I was 24, I had big ego! I could never say I made such a huge mistake, no that was never going to happen.
No, I saw the big red flags, the were all but smacking me in the face and that inner voice said run, run Forrest run!
But I couldn't humble myself to go home, I was so full of myself! Not God, but of myself, that I could never admit to defeat.

So I set it up, how this relationship was going to go from that day forward. I let him know he had it over me and sadly yes, I stopping talking to my two best friends.

Yes, when we are young we are full of ego, we know everything, we don't need anyone, we say all the time
"We got this"
Unfortunately some people still feel this way, they still can't admit to failure or defeat, they can't admit to falling down so they never learn the lessons they are supposed to.

I know now, I can't do anything on my own accord, no I seek my God for all my answers. I no longer have ego, because frankly I am too stupid to make decisions on my own, hell, look at all the great ones I've made so far?

Ha, I need all the help I can get! I have given ego up to help others, I tell you all the time, how I fall on my face, how I screw up, how bad I feel, so that you might learn from my mistakes. That someone might see themselves in one of my blogs and say I am going through that, I see the red flags and because of her, I think I am going to listen.

Or maybe if you already sped past them, to know it will get better, that you can change your situation that your in.
You just need to have faith, to believe and to let go of your ego!

We all need guidance, we all need help, we just have to be open but to be open you need to take the first step, admit you have a problem, decided you want to do something about it, don't worry about what others will say, let go of your ego and let God...

That's it! That simple, now be still and listen, don't question, feel....you will know your answers, be still.... Believe me letting go is the best thing you can do, it is amazing what peace and joy you will feel when you kick your ego to the curb.
