A wise man told God to give him the serenity to accept the things he cannot change,the boldness or courage to change the things he can and the wisdom to know the difference.What a prayer!There are certain things that you cannot change,I am not saying that God cannot change it,but you cannot change it for now.If God decides not to change it for a reason best known to him,what will you now do?God is a master planner and never wastes anything.If He knows that you can learn something from that situation you are going through that will be of great benefit to you,Him and the world around tomorrow,He may allow it.
Even when His only begotten son was going through hell on the cross,He turned His back because the benefit far outshined the pain.There are a lot you can change by making necessary adjustment,but the greatest wisdom is to know the difference between what you can change and what you cannot change.We most times spend so much time trying to change what we cannot,we spend resources,time,energy and emotion only to discover at the end that we cannot change it,we can only go through it.Can you force an orange tree to bear fruit when it is not in its season?
When you are going through a situation that you have not been able to change,even after you have done all,just relax there may be a benefit in that situation that you need to obtain.I call it the gold in the gutter or the bread inside the bitter.Once you apply the wisdom of trying to find out the benefit in the situation,then you will see something you have never seen before.
Now receive grace to accept the things you cannot change for now,the courage to change the things you can and the wisdom to know the difference in Jesus precious name.2 Corinthians 12:7.Ecclesiastes 3:1.
