This is one of these gloomy days. The sky is gray, and so is my heart. Maybe yours. One of these days where you do not feel upbeat, do not have the strength to put on an optimistic mask, so that people around you won't feel uncomfortable. Because, who wants to be around a long face? A depressed soul?
You think of your future, but can't pass the gray sky. Or the blunt ceiling above your head.
Yet He says,
"'For, I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
So you let you heart beat again. You let hope sneak in. You let yourself believe that maybe one day, one day, something good will come out of what you are going through. You let peace happily take over.

Because He says So

Yes, Peace. Peace is a state of mind. Peace is a way of life. Peace is what I strive for in my soul. It is sometimes elusive, and I've learned that it can be snatched away in a heartbeat. By another's actions, words, moods. This is when I remember to take a deep breath, to not count on others to make me happy, to count on the important things and ones in my life. Peace is good.
So deep, Cheryl. Thank you for sharing. :)
