Acceptance

​Hello everyone,
 
I hope everybody had a good weekend and ready to challenge a new week and a new day.  God is good all the time and even though we encounter trials on our journey, we’re still blessed.  Today we’re going to talk about acceptance because sometimes things happen on our journey and it’s very important that we accept life as it comes to us and do what we can when we can at the time.
 
Everything we go through is a part of life, we can’t control what happens in all situations and it’s important that we allow God to work in our lives by accepting what comes our way.  God has a plan, and He knows what goes on in our day and what’s going to happen before it happens so trust God and know that He’s still in control.
 
As difficult as things can be, we have to still trust Him because He’s guiding us and moving us on our journey.  If we don’t have control over something, why worry and why get stressed out?  God knows what we go through and He’s the one holding our hand even through the darkest times in our lives.
 
When we accept day to day life, we’re able to be dependent on Him and allow Him to move us on the right path because we really don’t know His plan.  When we think we know everything, is when our lives become a hot mess. If it’s something we done, ask for forgiveness and know that God has forgiven you.  We can’t take back yesterday but we can make today better.  Sometimes good comes out of bad situations and I know that’s true because when I look back on my life, I realize that if some situations did not take place. I wouldn’t be where I am today.  Amen and Thank You Lord.
 
Let’s humble ourselves, by accepting life as it comes and continue to pray to God for strength to accept the things that we can't change so that we can move to the next level on our journey.  Please enjoy the poem below regarding Acceptance:
 
Acceptance
​
Accept the circumstances of today
We don’t know what tomorrow may bring anyway
 
We should enjoy every moment as if it was the last
Because life could be taken away in a flash
 
We witness that every day by seeing people die
They don’t have another chance to say good-bye
 
We have been blessed because we’re still here
Jesus said “come to Him because the time is near
 
Don’t worry about what you’re to eat or where you’re to sleep
Today is enough to handle and it’s yours to keep
 
Accept whatever comes your way
Don’t waste time not enjoying the day
 
Give your burdens to me I’ve already paid the price
I’m forgiving, loving and very, very nice
 
Don’t hold on to things by feeling sad
This is a new day, rejoice and be glad
 
Worrying doesn’t do anything for the soul
Because I make the calls & I’m in control
 
Sit back and be still, I have a plan
Accept what it is & let me hold your hand.”
 
Amen and Thank You Lord
