God is my rock!

[army_wife2000]

 God is working in my life every day.  There is a saying but I can't remember exactly how it goes, maybe one of you can tell  me.  It has to do with the things we can change, accepting the things we cannot and the ability to know the difference...Anyway, these words have been going through my head for weeks after my hubby reminded me of them.  The point is that I have had trouble accepting certain changes in my life recently, and letting myself get so depressed that I have  been a different person.  I know that God  does not give us more than  we are able  to handle.  I  have wondered WHY does God dish out so much???  We are not to ask why,  simply accept the changes and still love those who misunderstand us and reach out to them.  I pray that God will continue to give me the strength that I need EVERY day that I live so that my children  can learn something good from me.

Very good:-)  You're talking about the serenity prayer.  We're supposed to ask God to change our hearts if we can not change our situation.  He can give us the strength to deal with lifes disappointments.  The bad things that happen to us only make us appreciate the good things more.  That's why I think we have to go through so many valleys...  So that we'll know how good the mountains are:-) 

Things are going to change for you.  In the meantime, I'm glad that you're able to make the very best out of your situation.  There's really nothing else that you can do.  God has been working through you and I can see a change:-)  Your children will surely learn something positive in the way you've been handling yourself.  Hold your head up high!
