Peace

Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you.  I do not give to you as the world gives.  do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

John 14: 27

In the last year I have faced many trials…and have found my way through them.  Some easier to tackle than others.

And now, I find myself facing a giant.  The nature of this giant will remain unstated.  It is one of those situations in which you think you are doing all as it should be, only to find out that isn’t the case.

I have found myself shedding tears periodically throughout the day.  And at times very agitated over the whole thing.  But tonight as I sat here reading, I was reminded of the above verse.

In situations that are out of our control, we have but one thing to do.  And that is to turn it over and let God’s peace replace the fear.  Let that sweet peace wash away what the world has taught us and trust that God knows all.
