Do
not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and
petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the
peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your
hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters,
whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is
pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is
excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.
Philippians
4:6-8 NIV
One thing in life, whether we
like it or not, is that change will happen. We tend to fear change
and become anxious about it because we are not in control of life -
God is. Change is real and necessary. Yes, Presbyterian Woman at
First Presbyterian Church will no longer be active after May, 2017 -
but we must embrace change and believe that out of this
transformation, something good and meaningful will be formed . With
God in control, we can (should) easily let go of our angsts and have
our hearts be open to the amazing opportunities that come along with
change.
I am a woman and I am a
Presbyterian. I have friends that are women and are Presbyterians.
Voila! We are and always will be Presbyterian Women!
To quote John F. Kennedy -
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past
or present are certain to miss the future. "
Dear Heavenly Father, grant
me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to
change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference. Amen.
