My reflection:
“Acceptance does not mean that you will always be perfect. It simply means that you will always overcome imperfection.
Acceptance is the road to peace-letting go of the worst, holding onto the best, and finding the hope inside that continues throughout life.
Acceptance is the hearts best defense, loves greatest asset, and the easiest way to keep believing in yourself and others.” Regina Hill
God loves us and gives us the grace is to accept ourselves

My reflection:
“Be not forgetful of prayer. Every time you pray, if your prayer is sincere, there will be a new feeling in the new meaning in it, which will give you fresh courage, and you will understand that prayer is an education.” Fyodor Dostoevsky

My reflection:
“Whatever you are trying to avoid won’t go away until you confront it.
Spend less time agonizing over decisions and more time acting on what you think needs to be done.
Be receptive to views and opinions that are different from your own.
Advice is one of the easiest things to give and the hardest things to receive.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. (Eleanor Roosevelt)

5 My reflection is from Living Faith
I know indeed how to live in humble circumstances; I know also how to live with abundance… I have the strength for everything through him who empowers me. Philippians 4:12, 13
”As he travels from place to place, Paul prided himself and his self-sufficiency when it came to caring for his needs. His words to the Philippines show the perspective of a person who has learned to accept whatever flows into or out of his life. He gives evidence of wisdom he’s gathered in gratitude he’s cultivated over the span of his ministry. Most telling is his noting that he has the strength to do this through all seasons by the power and grace of the God who accompanies him.
That same Holy One also empowers us today. To be truly grateful people, we are called to live lives of reflection so that we’re able to recognize whatever comes and to say thank you in both the lean and the abundant times.
Holy One, may I have a grateful heart for whatever comes into my life today.” Sr. Chris Koelhoffer, I.H.M

My reflection:
“I urge you precisely as I urge myself: reach for your deepest joys. Heed what you genuinely need and value, here and now. Strengthen your judgment, your discernment, so that you – and those you love – profit from the risks you take… Bit by intelligible bit, make choices that honor your healthiest instincts, your noble desires. This is how we build a life.” Marsha Sinetar
God wants us to follow our life dreams.

My reflection:
“You must do what you love. You must do what your heart tells you to do. It’s really that simple. When you connect with the things that you love, your spirit just flies. That is what you are supposed to be doing.”
When we are in touch with God’s Spirit then we can get through anything.?

My reflection:
“Being in touch with your heart rather than trying to follow your head is the true guide to a happy life…
Let your heart guide you in how you feel your days… like the win fills the sail of a boat.
Today I pause in silence several times a day, touch my heart, and look up at the sky.
I like to check in with my heart frequently and make sure I am happy.
My heart is my GPS to help me navigate my life.
It never fails to guide me
