Day 10
Today’s reflection is a bit difficult for those of us with a tendency towards perfectionism to accept. When we hear about ‘acceptance’ we may think of giving in, accepting our lot in life and staying where we are. But that’s not really what this is about. It’s about not throwing shade on our current situation, not hating every little thing so much that we can’t enjoy the good that is there. It’s coming to a point where we can say ‘I’m ok, and I’m on my way’, my life is not perfect but it’s ok. It’s offering those things that bring us stress to the Lord and relinquishing them to Him. And then we stop fighting with it, we simply need to pray and obey! Listen to the Lord in prayer and then obey the little steps that He puts before us. Be open to receiving His graces. It’s about dying to our own will, so that we can live for His.
