For this Sunday we have for you an
inspiring message from Swami taken from The Hatfield Sai Center Magazine, March 2006 issue.
Why get agitated? Let Me take care of your business. I shall be the One who will think about
them. I am waiting for nothing else than your surrender to Me. I intervene only
when you know how to completely surrender to Me, then you do not have
to worry anymore about anything. Say Farewell to all fears and discouragement.
You demonstrate that you do not trust Me. On the contrary, you
must rely blindly on Me.
To surrender means: to turn your thoughts away from all your problems. Leave
everything into My hands saying: Lord! Thy will be done, Thou think of it. That
is to say: Lord, I thank you for You have taken everything in Your hands and
you will resolve this for my highest good.
Remember that thinking of the consequences of a thing is contrary to surrender;
that is to say when you worry that a situation has not had the desired outcome.
You thus demonstrate that you don't believe in My love for you. You will prove
that you don't consider your life to be under My control and that nothing escapes Me.
Never think: how is this going to end? What is going to happen? If you give
into this temptation you demonstrate that you don't trust Me. Do you want Me to deal with it, yes
or no? Then you must stop being anxious about it. I shall guide you only if you
completely surrender to Me and when I must lead you into a different path than the one that you expect, I carry you in
My arms.
What seriously upsets you is your reasoning, your worrying, your obsession and
your will to provide for yourselves at any price. I can do so many things when
the being, as much in his material necessities as in his
spiritual ones turns to Me saying: You think of it, and rests quietly closing his eyes. You will
receive a lot, but only when your prayer will fully rely upon Me. You pray to Me when in pain so that
I will intervene, but in the way you desire it. You do not rely on Me, but you want me to adjust to your
requests.
Don't believe like sick ones who ask the doctor to treat, all the time suggesting the
treatment to him. Do not do that, but rather, even in sad circumstances say:
Lord! I praise and thank you for this problem, for this necessity. I pray to
you to arrange things as You please for this terrestrial and temporal life. You know very
well what is best for me.
Sometimes you feel that disasters increase instead of diminishing! Don't get
agitated. Close your eyes and tell Me with faith; Thy will
be done. Thou think of it. And when you thus speak, I even accomplish a miracle
when necessary. I only think of it when you trust Me totally. I always
think of you, but I can only help you completely when you rely fully on Me.
