Hebrew 11:1

It's my 100th post. I wanted to celebrate, but I can't. But I do want to remember it by leaving this verse as a reminder that life will go on and to just keep having faith that GOD has a plan.

Hebrews 11:1

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and being certain of what we do not see.




God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.

Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
Taking, as Jesus did,
This sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it,
Trusting that You will make all things right,
If I surrender to Your will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.

Amen.

It's that knowing the difference between the things I can change and the things I can't were I find myself running into walls.
Great post Erin. Someday we'll all see the plan. Keep the faith.
