All you are isn't up for change

Greetings Beloved Ones,

I love the Serenity Prayer. "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference!". That is such a powerful prayer yet it is often challenging to do.

We sometimes spend time and energy worrying about something we did or didn't do and now cannot undo. It is over and yet we still want it to be different in our minds. The more healthy approach would be to accept what has been done and then to see what you can do to bring healing and peace. You may not be able to undo something but you can always practice or offer forgiveness, understanding, compassion, to yourself and others, or to a situation. Hanging onto guilt, shame or blame serves no one!

. What do you need to accept about yourself or others or a situation?
. What can you change about yourself?
. What is non-negotiable for you?

Make it a valuable day!
Rev.Sylvia
