Design

Each of us is born with certain unchangeables that are beyond our control. For example, we did not choose our birth parents, our brothers and sisters, our birth order, our gender, our nationality, or our innate physical features. Since we cannot change these things, we have a choice. Either we choose to be grateful for God's purposes for these unchangeable features, or we will recent them and likely become bitter toward God and toward life in general. The basic principle is that true happiness does not come from our outward appearance or physical circumstances, but from the development of inward character, such as gratefulness, patience, compassion, and joyfulness.
