A specific truth of life is that there is much we cannot change. We can't do anything about this morning's traffic. Another person's reaction is not something we can control or dictate. As much as we desire people to be like us we don't usually see that happen and there's really nothing we can do about it.
I'm sure that we all have made a number of mistakes that we probably regret, but they are in the past and that is something we cannot change. Reliving the past does not help us change the future or help us make today any easier. That's why regardless of what takes place we need to learn how to be at peace.
There's a certain power in calmness. And those who learn to accept with peace that which they cannot change will find power to change those things they can. Inner peace gives you the ability to see what can be done and also what can't. This peace is available to all who ask.
Philippians 4:7
"And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
