  • Peace

    Found this quote on Pinterest from Livelifehappy.com :

    “Sometimes walking away has nothing to do with weakness, and everything to do with strength. We walk away not because we want others to realize our worth and value, but because we finally realize our own.”

    Last night I think I had another breakthrough on some of this grief and pain that still lingers. Healing is a process. Forgiveness is a process. Accepting and moving on is a process.
    This morning I wrote this down at the gym.

    Peace that surpasses all understanding
    Peace like a river
    Peace of body mind and soul
    Peace that dwells in your heart
    Peace to know your working it out
    Peace that rebukes all ounce of doubt

    Speaking your piece/peace in truth and love
    Speaking your heart to your Father above
    Peace because you know
    Your moving on and letting more go

    It is so comforting
    It is so soothing
    I am not defeated discouraged or broken
    I am where I need to be
    Trusting and Healing
    Getting to know peace.

    Also, anytime I think of Peace, I think of Rich Mullins song Peace (Communion Blessing from St. Joseph’s Square). It’s really pretty. The words are beautiful. Many times they have spoken and ministered to me. 

    And may peace rain down from Heaven
    Like little pieces of the sky
    Little keepers of the promise
    Falling on these souls
    This drought has dried
    In His Blood and in His Body
    In the Bread and in this Wine
    Peace to you
    Peace of Christ to you”  

    Peace, love, and Jesus,

  • Beautiful poems, both of them.  I’m praying for peace for some in my family who are going through hard times right now.

  • @ata_grandma Thank you. The part at the end was from Rich’s song. Love the words to that song. It’s hard when people you love are hurting, but that is the best way to help, praying for them. Storms come and go and it is nice to have others to weather them with us and intercede for us.
