staying in Peace. I like to listen to Joel Osteen and this evening he is talking about "Staying in Peace", How we can be in the Storm, the key is don't let the storm get in you, he compares to a boat in the water, you can have trouble all around you, stress, just like the boat you don't have to allow what is on the outside to get inside......don't let the storm get in you, don't start taking in the water. I've been on a roller coaster for so long, now I need to stay calm, keep my peace, this may be difficult but I need to be in peace, in rest and trust in God. I am not going to allow what is on the outside get in my inside. I use to worry about so much, draining my energy, worry is like a rocking chair, you are always moving but not going anywhere. In all the hectic, I need to learn to keep the outside there and not in my inside, come back to that place of peace on my inside. Like an eye of a storm, in the calm. Stress will come in life, but in the Myst of the difficulty there is an area of Peace. Stay calm in the Midst of the storm and feel a Peace that may be unexplained. Can be IN the storm but don't allow the storm come IN me. Peace is not the absence of trouble, real Peace is not allowing the trouble to come INside of me. Don't wait for all your problems to be resolved and then say it will be better, NO make up your mind you are going to have Peace right in the midst of the storm. Remember 'still water runs deep', the depths are calm, on the surface things are going on, wind, waves etc. Challenges on the surface is just life, but inside deep down, have a calmness. Don't live a 'shallow' life, don't live on the surface, can't control the 'wind' 'others'. Surface is always going to be changing, but go down to the "deep" waters, the calmness, the rest. The surface is changing, this too shall pass....Hold your Peace, stay in Peace, Life is too short to live it offended, stressed out. "Put your shoes of Peace on" Waves come and go, be calm, cool and steady, tap into the deep water. Indore unflinchingly, hold your Peace, stay at rest, everything will be fine,
