Yet, the secret about acceptance is the minute we accept the truth of that which we are resisting, that changes it.
We may not like it, but we are no longer resisting it. Which, by grit and by grace, leads us to crash and burn, also known as surrender made holy...purely because we find there in the ashes of self-will the place where God lives.
We surrender to the fact that we do not know, we do not know what we do not know, we are helpless in the face of that fact, and we need help. We turn to that unseen power greater than our self to find a way to live without our today's heart's desire.
That is acceptance.
Thank you.
