One thing I have already learned with this little project is that I am in complete control in how I respond to a situation. I can either look at a problem as that or as an opportunity. It was said best by Joyce Meyer’s prayer for the August 24th devotional:
Lord, I can’t change the world around me, but I can bring my life and requests to You. May Your peace guard my heart and mind today. Thank you that I can rest in Your arms. Amen.
