Ego= Edging God out
Ego= Edging God out
I loved this saying when I heard it 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 was talking to my cousin Carol recently and she asked me if I saw the warning signs with my ex-husband from the beginning.
YES!! After a month if us living together he came home and said he didn't like my two best friends, my childhood best friends, the only two friends I had in Florida.
He said one was a whore and the other, which was my best friend since we were 12 years old because he was gay. He didn't want to hang out with "these people" so I had to make choice them or him.
Now trust and believe if I was in New York and he said this to me, I would have said hit the road buddy! And don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out!
But I had just sold my business, I rented out my house, I even gave my dog away and then I moved 1800 miles to be with him.
I told everyone I was in love, this was the one, yadda, yadda, yadda... Now how was I suppose to go home with my tail between my legs, say oops! Not really, thought he was the one, psych! Not!

No, I was 24, I had a big ego! I could never say I made such a huge mistake. No, I saw the big red flags, they were all but smacking me in the face and that inner voice said run Forrest run!!!
But I couldn't humble myself to go home, I was too full of myself! Not God but of myself! So I set up how this relationship was going to go from that day forward. I let him know he held all the power over me the day I stop 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 got this. Unfortunately, some people still feel this way, but I've come to realize that I cannot do anything on my own accord. No, now I seek God for all my answers.
I no longer have an ego, because frankly, I am too stupid to make decisions on my own. Hello! Look at all the great ones I've made so far? Ha! I need all the help I can get!
I have given my ego up to help others as well. I tell you all the time if you read my blogs how I fall on my face, how I screw up, how bad I feel so that you might learn from my mistakes. It's so you might see yourself in one of my blogs and say I am going through that, I see the red flags, I think I am going to listen to her.
Or if you already sped past them, like I did so many years ago, to know it will get better, that you can change! 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 and to be open you need to take the first step. You first must admit you have a problem and then decided you want to do something about it. Don't worry about what others will say or think, let go of your ego and let God.
Yesterday I wrote about going back to therapy as I realized I had triggers that were still an issue in my life. Most people would A. Never admit they needed therapy or B. If they did would never put it out there for the whole world to see.
But I want to be transparent, I want to help others and I no longer have Ego so it is easy for me to share this.

See that's it! It's 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 ego to the curb.
Change your life today and as I say at the end of all my blogs...
"Be the change you want to see"
"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
