Today's Gift - 5/6
Permalink  
 


Reflection for the Day

I can attain real dignity, importance and individuality only by a dependence on a Power, which is great and good, beyond anything I can imagine or understand. I will try my utmost to use this Power in making all my decisions. Even though my human mind cannot forecast what the outcome will be, I will try to be confident that whatever comes will be for my ultimate good. Just for today, will I try to live this day only, and not tackle my whole life problem at once?

Today I Pray

May I make no decision; engineer no change in the course of my life stream, without calling upon my Higher Power. May I have faith that God's plan for me is better than any scheme I could devise for myself.

Today I Will Remember

God is the architect. I am the builder.

This is an amazing post! I am learning to do what it suggests after realizing that it isn't "Grace's will be done", instead it is "Thy will be done". I don't feel so overwhelmed and burdened with trying to predict the future and figure out the outcomes as much as I did. (Oh, I still find myself doing it sometimes--old habits are hard to break--but there is hope for me.)
Thanks Pappy.
