"When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves". Victor Frankl
Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Life will eventually offer each person the opportunity, a challenge, to which we must respond. That response will determine who you really are. Some situations cannot be changed! We can always change ourselves and be better for it. Our prayer should always be, God I am yours use me for your Glory. Tough proposition! But well worth it.
When life gives you a "life altering" situation which you cannot change, will you be the victim or the victor??
