Are you having trouble accepting a person or situation in your life? Sometimes we confuse acceptance with agreement. You might not like something, but that doesn’t change reality. So what can you do?
A lot of times, the fight is in our minds. A circumstance bothers us so much that it takes away our peace. And there’s the secret. No situation can give you lasting, permanent peace because situations change all the time.
Only in Christ do we find true rest. This is proven over and over again in believers that get through the most difficult situations only by trusting in God.
If you are facing something, or someone, you find hard to accept, remember this: now is not forever.
Accept the reality of today, since denying reality never really helps. Then go to the Lord to keep your hope alive for tomorrow.

Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born anew.
John 3:5-7
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
John 14:27

Prayer to accept things I can’t change
My heavenly Lord,
The way things are right now are not how I want them to be.
It’s all too painful. It’s a mess. Is this want you want for me?
I struggle with acceptance. I’ve been hurt for so long. Don’t you see me, oh Lord?
Show me that acceptance only means now, not forever. Some things won’t change today.
For now, oh Lord, care for my heart. For where your love is anything is possible, and my soul flies free.
Help me to accept things today. May I find rest in your Word.
As long as it takes, I’ll wait and pray.
Your Spirit gives me hope that never leaves and never dies. \
No matter what happens, no matter how much it hurts, your peace is with me.
Life is not so heavy, not so dark, as in Christ resurrected my spirit is born again.
In Jesus name,
Amen.
