Serenity takes work

Today was a tough day and I can't even put my finger on why. I suppose that I wasn't very serene because I didn't really do anything to search for serenity. I think I focused too much on being tired and what I didn't like in my day and it just kept getting worse. I really should've found some time to work on myself today, but I just kept focusing on the negative. Writing this blog is the first real thing that I've done for myself today.

Tomorrow should be a better day since I will find myself on the treadmill working off the stress.

Lord, please help me focus on myself and not worry about Jim and other things that I cannot change. I can only change myself. I can only change my own reactions to those around me. As much as I would like to control all the situations I find myself in, please help me to remember that the only thing I can control is what I DO in the situation. Please help me find some happiness and peace tomorrow. Work through me and help me do your will and know that that is what I'm supposed to be doing, not MY will. Amen
