It is so easy for me to look at the world and see the number of things in disarray and be baffled.  I was realizing the other day as I was sharing with a coworker things that just don’t make sense to me about how certain things occur in a particular system we have at the company I work for.  It is not work that I am directly involved in but I do interact with people in those particular roles.  When I look back on it the discussion was more of a venting of frustration and complaining and served no specific purpose except to perhaps make me sound good because I had a supposed solution to the issues these people deal with.  The reality of it is, it is none of my business.  I have enough in my own life that needs to be rectified.  I do not need to concern myself with what is happening for others.  It is humbling to admit but sometimes I think it is easier to look at things happening for others at a distance and have a solution than to face the things in my life where I don’t see a solution.  I need God’s help to look closer into my life at what needs reconciliation and ask for the courage to do what needs to be done.  It could be something as simple as accepting a situation or experience that is occurring.  I have been facing some health challenges lately and it is humbling when the doctors and other professionals around me are baffled.  The good news is nothing is wrong, but then they are at a loss as to why my body is behaving the way that it is.  I need to rectify my attitude towards the situation.  I have learned that acceptance is the answer and for today I am having a hard time accepting things as they are, but I can be rectified in my attitude by accepting the fact that I don’t accept what is going on.  When I realized that, there was a small sense of peace that I had because I feel as though I am being authentic with myself and with God.  Accept my non-acceptance!  Sometimes it comes in small pieces for me.  My prayer for you today is that you be granted the courage to rectify something in your life whether it is with a situation or a person so that you can authentically present yourself to God to be of service.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
