where peace lives (p.11)

“Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.”

I found this painting at an estate sale this week. It just looked so tranquil, so peaceful.

It was my very first estate sale purchase and unknowingly fitting for my week.

Peace has been my teacher this week.

If I were to list out the top feelings I desire, peace is at the top.

I think it’s because my busy mind rarely rests. And I am being reminded how peace feels.

It’s not about checking off to-do’s or solving the “what if’s” but how it feels to move through my day with an easiness and assurance knowing I am supported by something far greater than myself.

I discovered that faith is key to my peace. They are like sisters, faith, and peace. One is related to the other. And faith is the eldest. She comes first. Without her, I do not know the other.

Faith is so beautiful. She quiets my mind.

That is where peace lives for me. Where does she live for you?

I think each of us defines it differently. No matter where your peace resides, I hope you live there too. ❤️
