22. Expect Nothing, Accept Everything

22.   Expect nothing, accept everything and keep it moving.

When we expect nothing and get something, it brings so much more joy, than when we expect and receive nothing, doesn’t it?  At least that’s what it seems; however, the law of attraction says that we get what we expect, so if we’re expecting “nothing” that’s exactly what we will get.  Expect great things in life, for your life, not necessarily from one particular person, but from the universe. Expecting from one particular person is where the disappointments come in.  God uses everyone and everything to answer our prayers, but many times we miss it because it comes from a direction we weren’t expecting or someone we don’t want it to come from.

I bet you weren’t “expecting” this to end this way based on the topic huh? One day in prayer I said, “God, I wish you were here in human form to give me a hug.  I need a hug from you.”  That morning while at the office a coworker came directly to my office and she said, “Stand up.  I just want to give you a hug...” I stood and accepted my hug.  When she left, I looked up, smiled and said, “Thank You!” God heard me, and used her to give me my hug.  

Be open to the universe.  Live in the moment of joy and great expectations, and keep it moving.
