Dearest God,

How do we change something that is impossible to change? Not an alteration of the spirit or the emotions. Those can be changed by the will, determination, and persistence. Rather, how do we change the unchangeable? What do we rely on, dear God, for a transformation of the body and the mind?

I know how to avoid, deny, and pretend. None of these work except to build resentment and bitterness. How I wish it was possible to change what cannot be changed. However, there is no way to change the unchangeable. I need your guidance.

Lead me
to the well
of acceptance,
Gracious God.
Show me
the way.
Lead me
to your well
of understanding,
I pray.

Love, Andrea
