Faith Walk: Embracing Imperfections

When we are young, we have idealistic plans and goals of a perfect marriage, a perfect home and a perfect job where all of our dreams come true and we live happily ever after.

Yet, life rarely turns out the way we thought it would both for the good and the bad. The pathway to true contentment and happiness is not by seeking perfection but rather by embracing the reality of our situation in all of its imperfection. Acceptance is the first step to peace. “Lord, help us to accept the things that can’t be changed, to change the things that can be changed and the wisdom to know the difference.”
