Acceptance

To do righteousness and justice Is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice (Proverbs 21:3).

To the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved (Ephesians 1:6).

Acceptance says, True, this is my situation at the moment. I’ll look unblinkingly at the reality of it. But I’ll also open my hands to accept willingly whatever a loving Father sends.
~ Catherine Wood Marshall

Christianity is about acceptance, and if God accepts me as I am, then I had better do the same.
~ Hugh Montefiore

God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, courage to change the things that should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.
~ (Karl Paul) Reinhold Niebuhr

Accept the fact that you are accepted.
~ Paul Tillich
