Just a little peace

In the world in which we live, it is often hard to find a little peace. There seems to be an ever constant flow of frustration and strife and ill will. I don't know about you, but there have been may nights that I have had trouble sleeping due to the struggles going on in my life.

Listen, we seem to be bombarded on every side lately. It seems that I can't get a breath from one incidence before the next one occurs. I seem to have the "gift" lately of irritating and infuriating everyone else without any effort on my part. Most of the time, I cause the discomfort just by being there...

Today's word comes from 2 Thessalonians 3:16, NIV, which reads, "Now may the LORD of peace Himself give you peace at all times and in every way."

Look, there are some folks that a mere, "Hello" sends them over the edge; there is nothing we can do about that. Then, there are those times when no matter what we do, it only seems to make things worse. Lately, I have been stuck in the rut that no matter what I do, it is the wrong thing to do. Yeah, it seems that every time I think it is getting better, something else crops up to set me "right".

When these things happen, when things just seem to keep bogging down, when nothing seems to want to go our way, I know that the Prince of Peace is on my side, and with Him, nothing is impossible. Yeah, things have been in a state of unrest lately but I know that peace is on its way. And, if I offend you by breathing, just remember that we all have our challenges - I am yours.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
