Be Flexible |
Blessed are the flexible for they shall bend but not break.
Being flexible is such a valuable lesson to learn and live. And just to be clear- this is not flexible like in Yoga class. Life gives us a lot of expectations and it's easy to get caught up in schedules.
Giving your burdens to God takes a big load off.
It takes practice to let go. Good thing God is very patient!
Learning and accepting that things can and do change during the day makes life a lot easier.

Cast your burdens on the Lord, And he will sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.

Next time you start getting stressed out because plans or things changed, stop and take a few minutes to Pray: Count your blessings and remember 'this too shall pass'.
Trust in the Lord forever,
For in YAH, the Lord is everlasting strength.

Let's Pray.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for being here with me now. I can get so bent out of shape when things I had planned change. This is so upsetting to me, Lord. Please teach me how to be flexible. I trust in you, Lord. I know you have a beautiful plan for me. Please be patient with me.
Thank you for shaping me into the person you made me to be.
Amen.
Repeat this prayer when your plans change.
God wants you to trust him, so he can lead you.
You're a beautiful work in progress. Be proud of yourself!
