"Find your place of Peace. And when you do, safeguard it for the rest of your days."
The echo's of my Mother's words are as if they just left her mouth and were simultaneously consumed by my ears. The fact of the matter is, my Mother imparted those words to me so many years ago. They never departed when she ascended, for they were already planted, waiting to take root and within my soul, they have begun to Sprout.
When we think of Peace, we tend to think of places that are peaceful.
When we think of God, we tend to think of a Church.
But Peace is not a place, nor is God a Church. Peace, like God, both reside within you. And although peaceful places and Church are both important, God and Peace should be with you everywhere that you are. For some places might not be peaceful, but the Peace within you will make it so. As a matter of fact, some places might not know anything about Peace, until you make your presence known.
It is not feasible to spend ALL of your time in a Church. We have families to raise, jobs to perform and places to go. But, the Church is not the building that you enter into, rather it is the Church that has entered into you. Some might not ever step foot into a Church, however, when they encounter you, the representation of God will be on full display, and how you perform could provide them the courage to do what they have never done before. And like Peace, your presence could very well be the first time that they see the fullness of God, in representation of the Body of Christ, that resides within you.
Your whereabouts are irrelevant when it comes to the God and Peace within you. They both go before and make a way for you, upon your arrival. Sometimes our presence is beckoned to places that have neither, and instead of resisting the journey, embrace the privilege that it is to represent them proudly.
Interruptions in our plans will never negate the impenetrable God and the formidable Peace that sustains against anything composed by man.
Challenges may come, however God shall remain.
Interruptions may come, however Peace shall remain.
And through it all, our "Uninterrupted Peace" shall refrain from the inclusion of disruption, and maintain its Peaceful disposition, the one that separates us from the confusion and chaos that attempts to define us.
However, God and Peace reminds us that we have already been defined, and His perfection needs no makeover, within the shells that we lease. All Glory Be To God, for "Uninterrupted Peace."
God, Love, And Smile Always!
