Change ( Numbers 6 v 24-26

We live in a changing world,we need to adopt to change, some find it harder than others ,a man called Reinhold Niebuhr wrote a prayer on facing up to things that cannot be changed ,it goes like this.

                                                    'O God give us serenity to accept the things

                                                    what cannot be changed, courage to change

                                                     what should be changed,and wisdom to

                                                     distinguish the one from the other'

That is a very wonderful prayer,brings a challenge to all us,it brings two aspects as how we face change,the first one deals with what cannot be changed. Just before I started writing this daily reading,I received an email, as regards a young child who was very ill,it did not appear that she was going to live, alas I was informed she had died .There are so many things we cannot change, and will not change,sometimes we find that hard to accept that.So the prayer requests serenity ,to have a peace when  the difficult things that don't change,our Saviour said ,'ask and it shall be given you.'.

                                                

                                                                    John 14 v 27.

                                            

                                           ' Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you'
