Daily Detox Tip: A Pill Hard to Swallow

Today’s Daily Detox Tip is about a pill many find hard to swallow. Including me. 

This Daily Detox tip began this morning as I was listening to the following CD. One that we played a zillion times over during our last 21 Day Detox in January. But today, the words seemed to jump off the YouTube page, caught me off guard and apprehended my heart. All the while I was making my green smoothie!

 

“Take me high above the justice zone. Come up higher to the mercy zone. Come up higher, letting go of being right…”

 

Stepping Into the Mercy Zone      

If I am honest with myself, I love being right. It’s almost unheard of for me not to be right (at least in my eyes)! So letting go and stepping into the mercy zone is the pill that is hard to swallow, at least for me. When I’m challenged to let go, I notice that anger, unforgiveness and frustration arise quickly. Have you felt those emotions before? I have also discovered that those emotions almost always lead to making judgements about others and the situation at hand. Letting go is again, a pill hard to swallow. When I don’t let go and step into the mercy zone…

Life and its relationships then become very toxic.

Not swallowing the pill of letting go and choosing to live from these emotions, has the potential to cloud your heart from hearing and seeing as God does. When we take ownership, embrace and begin to listen to our emotions, we soon realize they are symptoms to something much deeper.

An Invaluable Daily Detox Tip

As I played a part of this song over and over this morning, my heart began responding as I began seeing my need to “go higher, to step into the mercy zone. To step out of the judgment zone. Mercy is not getting what we deserve and releasing that gift to others. When we show mercy, we are shown mercy. Mercy will pick you up…. where as Grace will carry you through.

Mercy Triumphs Over Judgement

Have you found yourself always needing and wanting to be right? Do you get angry and begin to make judgements when your need to be right is challenged? I want to encourage you today with this Daily Detox tip… swallow the pill. Let go. Remember, mercy always triumphs over judgement.

Scroll forward to 9:15 and listen until 15:30 (or listen to the whole hour!). As you soak in the words of >>> Julie True’s song let Love apprehend your heart, like it did to mine today.
