Walk in the direction in which your peace is found
Steven Atchison
I read a line in a Dick Francis book once that stuck with me
"All around her was an island of peace."
What does the "island" around you look like?
Is it cluttered with the fruit of bitterness?
or the fruit of love and kindness for the picking?
Littered with angry thoughts and memories?
or have you captured the glow of happy memories?
Overgrown with fear and suspicion?
or a place of order and calm?
What messages are you sending from the island of your life?
When people sail near,
do they fear the rocky shores
or are they grateful for the safe haven?
It is your island
Make it a peaceful place to dwell and visit
a place of comfort for yourself and others
The world could use that right now
oh...and some smiles would be helpful as well
Do all that you an to
live in peace with everyone.
Romans 12:18
