2 - Reflect
Sometimes we obsess over something and we can not stop repeating it over and over in our thoughts. We are trapped in a moment or we can not find a way to solve it, and we constantly go over it in our mind. "If I do, maybe I'll get it wrong", "if I do not overcome this, it will be harder and harder to forget", "what will happen to my family if they find out what I did". These ideas can come from emotions such as fear, anguish, and restlessness. Remaining afflicted without doing anything about it can lead to a very distressing concern.
When we can not get it out of our minds, when we ruminate over what happens to us without end, at that moment we must surrender our will to the Lord. Trust that from His wisdom our Father will find the best way to share His advice. With His word, He will calm us down and help us to distance ourselves from the situation and find better solutions. It will alleviate our indecision and we will be able to walk the path of truth and responsibility to carry out our goals. Without Him we can fall for false advice, into bad behavior, and into wrongful decisions. Only Christ will guide us towards grace, with His infinite support and His sure caress.
