Sometimes you just have to conclude there are things you can do nothing about. Youwatch the news and are furious when you see justice denied those who deserve it. You have a child that has chosen the wrong path and you see them rushing headlong toward destruction. Painful though it can be, you can do nothing about it. You see a colleague receiving treatment that is undeserved or should be directed at yourself, but you know you can do nothing about it. The list could get rather lengthy, but my point is we can get upset and even extremely angry about a situation but it does no good. Instead, we need to focus our attention on that which is in our control and dismiss what is not. It is a truism, you can only do something about that which affects you. You can control how you react to certain situations. Your emotions are yours and they belong to no one else.

I encourage you to focus on yourself and your family. You are not responsible for how others act and you are not in control of what people do including your family members. Be concerned for others, love people, see good in all that you see, and most important, get your life right with God and live for eternity. It will change your life. That you can do something about.

Please come and worship with us Sunday.And remember that EVERYONE is welcome here.
