Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation
(2 Thessalonians 3:16; NLT).
The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised
(Job 1:21; NIV).
Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble? (Job 2:10; NIV).
A wise person thinks a lot about death (Ecclesiastes 7:4; NLT).
Father,
Please help me
To live at peace with myself –
By embracing all I’ve experienced,
And all the consequences,
Good and bad;
By coming to terms
With all the limitations
Illness brings;
And by welcoming old age
And death,
With quiet acceptance.
