I mentioned to a friend how good I am at beating myself up emotionally and how bad I am at letting things go.
I can hold onto all sorts of things and continue to revisit them over and over and over. Anything really. My weight. My relationships. What I ate. The quantity I ate. What I may have said to someone. My fear of the unknown. My past. My fear of sharing my thoughts and feelings with others. My weaknesses. Sometimes even my strengths. The list can go on and on.
This friend mentioned that she has a “God Box” and it helps her give things over to God and release them. She explained that a God Box is a box where I can take whatever is bothering me, write it on a slip of paper, and place it in the box. The purpose is to give the item over to God to handle from that point onward.
The idea was intriguing to me so I went online to learn more and to see if others use a God Box. The webpage that I liked the most, because it didn’t get to religious but was more spiritual, was http://www.teras-wish.com/godbox.htm.
So, I’ve decided that over the next day or two (depending on when I can find the box and decor that I want to work with) I am going to create my God Box.
