Let’s Relax
Close your eyes and give yourself a tight hug. Hold that tight hug for 60 seconds, and then slowly let your whole body relax from the top of your head down to the bottom of your feet. Breathe deeply and slowly. Once your entire body is relaxed, be still for additional 60 seconds.
Now is the time to relax. You have completed tasks that helped you Limit Expenses to 1/3rd of Income, Avoid Co-Signing & Rushing into Signed Contracts, pay back what is borrowed, learn to live with a little or a Lot, never wait for the perfect time, and seek God first for provision.
