Self Repair

(A Journal Entry:
August 12,2013)

"Beautiful lives don't just happen
They are made every single day with much
love, prayer and sacrifice.
The many tasks we face each day can burden and exhaust us;
But spending time with God each day can bring relief from stress.
Let us be reminded that in the end, three things matter:
How fully we lived...
How deeply  we loved...
and how gracefully we let go of the things not essential in life."

     There are a lot of things in our lives that we want to change, if only I am like this, if only my circumstances are different, if only people change but at times these things do not. What will you do? Lately this truth has been pounding in my heart and I have come to a great conviction of my own negative responses to life, if you commit these things to prayer the circumstances does not automatically alter but you do. And most of all, when you bare your heart and seek God's word then the lies you are allowing yourself to believe fades away, then that is self repair found in God not in the change of your circumstances but your heart.
