Peace. This word has been on my mind a lot lately. The other day I was having a hard day and as I was talking with a friend and he asked me, "what was it that challenged your peace"? I thought that this was a very interesting question. In fact I thought it was kind of a silly question at first. Then the more I thought about it the more I realized that this was a very thought provoking question for me.
We all want peace right? I mean come on I am almost 50 years old now. At this point in my life "Peace" is about the only thing that really matters anymore. So, as I thought more on what actually challenged my "peace", I realized that in order to have peace in my life regardless of what happens, I need to do those things that bring that peace. So, here are some of the things that bring me peace.
1. I feel peace when I get plenty of sleep
2. I feel peace when I take a long walk to start my day
3. I feel peace when my home is clean and orderly
4. I feel peace when I spend time with my children
5. I feel peace when I pray with a sincere heart
6. I feel peace when I don't over eat
7. I feel peace when I take time for me
8. I feel peace when I attend the temple worthily
9. I feel peace when My Man and I are on the same page
10.I feel peace when I remember I have a best friend who gets me when no one else does
These things are true for me. What brings you peace?
