Do Not Worry On Things You Cannot Change

Post written by Raymund Tamayo

There are just things beyond our control.

We must accept that or we will constantly be frustrated.

Actually, when it comes to people, the only person you can control is yourself.

Do not worry on things that you cannot change.

Do not worry on PEOPLE that you cannot change.

To have peace, we must accept that.

One of the things that stress us is our demand to have an explanation for everything.

So we should stop thinking we can control everything – we are not God, it’s useless worrying about things we have no control of.

God doesn’t owe us an explanation for everything, but rather we owe everything to Him.

And even if He did explain why, we probably wouldn’t understand it. His thoughts are higher than our thoughts, His ways so much more than our ways.

Explanations never bring peace anyway, have you ever thought of that?

Sometimes explanations do cause more worries and troubles. How many times have we said “I’m not satisfied of your explanation”?

What should comfort us is the awareness of God’s presence in our life, not His explanation.

The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but the thought about it.

Be aware of your thoughts, separate them from the situation.

It’s our own mind, not an enemy or foe, which makes us struggle. Guard it with care.
