Appreciating gods grace

Merry Christmas everyone,

I hope you all know that is all about God and He's the one that helps us get through life.  Life is really what you make of it.  It is what it is until you make changes.  God gave us the power to be happy but we have to want to be happy.  Everything we go through is a part of life.  There’s nothing we can do about things that happen.  We just have to accept every situation and make the best out of it. 

Sometimes we try so hard to understand why things happen but it’s not up to us to understand.  It’s already done.  I’ve learned this the hard way because I use to beat myself up to understand life.  Once I realized that I was wasting my time, I don’t spend any time on why things happen.  God said “I’m your father, allow me to guide you.”  You just accept what it is and move on.  It’s like playing basketball and going for a layup.  If you have the open shot and look back, you may not make the layup.  If you keep on going even when you see the battle, you will win. 

When we’re in situations and we don’t like what we see, we still can win if we accept and move on.  When we don’t have control, why worry.  You are wasting your time.  We can only pray for God’s mercy and continue to live.  Otherwise we’re not going to be able to get up the next day.  When we totally trust God, we will be able to accept whatever.  Those of you who have major issues in your life, give it to God.  Accept what it is and live one day at a time. 

Everybody goes through something and if we appreciate life each day, we will be able to enjoy life in all situations.  We worry too much and we don’t accept today.  Life really is what it is.  We can accept it or reject it.   Don’t lose out on life and enjoy each day.

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.”
 
YOU HAVE TO LEARN TO ACCEPT LIFE
 
PHILLIPIANS 4:11
Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content:
