Adaptability

"I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances."

— Philippians 4:11

Lord,

Life constantly changes. What was true yesterday is no longer true today. This instability can destabilize me if I don't know how to adapt.

Give me adaptability. The ability to adjust to changing circumstances, to find new solutions when old ones no longer work, to remain flexible.

May I be like the reed that bends in the wind rather than the oak that breaks. Adaptability is a strength, not a weakness.

Amen.

Reflection

What change do you need to adapt to right now? How can you be more flexible?

For all those who struggle with change and adaptation.
