Thought for today: Be at Peace
When my sisters and I would get a little out of hand (as at times little girls would do) my dad would say "Peace." It was the one-word chastisement that would snatch us back in line. It didn't take much. As I grew older, I began to think more about and value what this word actually meant. It was a word that promoted a calming energy. This effect, or phenomenon, allowed me to desire this same energy in my own home. I cherished the drama free lifestyle that seemed so unattractive to those on reality TV. I became protective of my peace. Even more so now I proclaim peace over my home, peace at work, and peace where I worship. And now there is a peaceful energy which was spoken over me in childhood that I want to share with you. Be at peace.
