Peace



It is always a good goal to remain peaceful.

Sometimes the world in which we live is anything but peaceful so we have to maintain it within ourselves.

It has been said that every generation thinks the times in which they are living are the worst ever.

Admittedly, there have been times when I could not help but cry over the kind of world in which we are sending our grandchildren.

So it's important to remember that "This, too, shall pass."

Discord, rampant gun violence, divisiveness in our beloved country, hatred of others because of their race, and on and on---all of these can cause great sorrow.

Still, it is possible to remain peaceful within our hearts, knowing that someone far more powerful than ourselves will have the last say on everything.

With that thought in mind, peace comes.

HOW DO YOU, PERSONALLY,  FIND PEACE, GIVEN ALL THE DISTURBING THINGS HAPPENING IN THE WORLD?

I agree - only Jesus can give us inner peace.

Attending church, quiet prayer, saying the rosary are a few things I do to maintain peace.

I understand your feelings, Susan. The world can trouble us at times, but I think you said it best..... Still, it is possible to remain peaceful within our hearts. Thank you, dear friend.
