I Am Calm and Serene ...

Nothing can disturb us without out permission.  For that reason, let us begin our day with a choice for peace.  Regardless of external events, the length or urgency of our to do list, or the activity of our busy mind, I find peace within. These words are taken from the Daily Word.

As we become quiet, aware of Spirit, and aware of our own thoughts and emotions, we are not sidetracked by any rash reaction to turmoil. We focus out attention on our breathing, close our eyes and envision the tranquility of Spirit.  We feel calm as we make a few simple choices for peace.

A few moments in prayer or meditation attune us to the serenity within.  In Spirit, we are calm, serene and undisturbed.

Thank you for sharing your words of peace and encouragement! I needed to hear that today! My mind was racing through the stress of my "To Do List" when I came across your email..... God has such a way of reaching out with love and support just when you need it! It's amazing how he touches your life through others! Thank you for being that person!
