I'm learning -- all too slowly, at times -- that when I give up the losing battle of trying to run my life in my own way, I gain abiding peace and deep serenity. For many of us, that learning process is a painfully slow one. Eventually, however, we understand that there are only two wills in the world, my will and God's. Whatever is within my direct control is my will; whatever is beyond my direct control is His Will. So I try to accept that which is beyond my control as God's will for me. Am I beginning to realize that by surrendering my will to the Divine Will, I am for the first time living without turmoil and without anxiety?
Today I Pray
May I hope that my will can be congruent with the all-encompassing will of God. I pray that I will know immediately if my will is in a useless tug-of-war with His Divine Will. May I trust God now to guide my will according to his Master Plan -- and to make His purpose mine.
Today I Will Remember
Achievement comes when my will is in harmony with God's.
This meditation really inspired me when I read it thought I would share it with you here.

Hmmmmmmmmm......Agree with much especially the last part, but not so sure about "Eventually, however, we understand that there are only two wills in the world, my will and God's. Whatever is within my direct control is my will; whatever is beyond my direct control is His Will. " when a person is acting on his own personal self will and it affects me is that God's will for me? I don't think so. the God of my understanding does not cause or want bad things to happen to me or anyone else. Life happens. God helps us make the best of it.
