‘Lean on Me’ lyrics by Bill Withers

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain                                                                        We all have sorrow                                                                                                          But if we are wise                                                                                                               We know that there’s always tomorrow                                                                              Lean on me, when you’re not strong                                                                                    And I’ll be your friend                                                                                                      I’ll help you carry on...

I was thinking about these lyrics in my early morning meditation and felt comforted. We know there will always be a time when we need a friend, need a companion, need a helper when times are rough. We also need a friend when we can’t figure out a solution to a problem or issue. We also need a friend when we don’t know exactly where our life is heading. Our human friends are always willing to give their opinions, right or wrong. Our DIVINE Friend, GOD, will always guide us to the RIGHT and True answer, as well as the thought that comes before. Lean on God.

God is both, original thought and follow through. Did you ever think your thoughts just came from your human mind or out of the blue? Well, I believe the origin of our thoughts come from GOD. The Alpha and The Omega. The Beginning and the End. If you REALLY wanted to do something, who do you think planted that seed in mind? GOD. If the seed is planted who do you think will help you carry the seed thought to fruition? GOD! We are both human and Divine. That is how we co-create with GOD.

The April 16 ‘Daily Word’ says, ” I do not need to choose between my own thinking and Divine Guidance. They complement each other. I use my Intelligence and skills to move myself forward. I listen for and then act upon my guidance, trusting GOD always.”

God within provides the IDEA and GOD within carries forth and demonstrates the IDEA.

“For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.” -Jeremiah 29:11

“When a flash of inspiration enters your awareness, it is not random. It is guidance. And when you act on it, the path ahead opens in ways you would never predict.”
–Jeffon Seeley

If you have an IDEA, a calling, GO for it. Be bold. LEAN ON GOD. God gave you that idea and will guide you to complete the idea.

LISTEN and LEAN on the Friend you have within yourself. GOD.
