REFLECTION FOR TODAY
When I concentrate too hard on what I want of life, I lose track of what God wants. But when I concentrate on living as I think God wants me to, listening to my heart and being ready to accept with good humor that which I cannot change, I almost always get from life something better than I could have asked for. I still have a tendency to say, "Please, God, let me have this or do that," but I almost always add, "if it is Your will." And I mean it!

MEDITATION FOR TODAY
Remind me, when I am demanding, that if I surrender I will get more than I asked for.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
I will try to get out of my own way and trust God to handle what I cannot.

June 26

REFLECTION FOR TODAY
Whenever I pray for God's will for me, I must understand that as I move throughout this day, I am probably doing what I should be doing. I was afraid that God's will for me would be something outlandish I would not want to do. I have come to believe God's will for me is to take care of the responsibilities in my present day life the best way I can.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY
If I pray for anything specific today, may I understand that Your will hear me and respond.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
God always answers prayers: sometimes yes, sometimes no, sometimes wait.
