Peace Like a River...

I love turning 24 because I now can appreciate some of the changes that has occurred over the course of time;

For better or for worse.... I still am glad that at least, I still am on a journey of discovering more about myself, others and my God.

This past week I have been overwhelmed with so much of peace for no apparent reason (I don't even know everything I ought to know for the upcoming 2 weeks), and yet I have never felt this way in a long time - maybe never even.

And I know it is surely nothing that I have done. It cannot be.

I was so scared to admit it lest I 'jinx' it. But hey, I cannot hide the truth.

I have been so upset about certain opinions in the past month; mostly made by people who have lived longer than me (and weren't necessarily directed at me), but may have seemed biased or subject to controversies.

I'm even thinking about some of them as I write this post.

But actually, I cannot be upset anymore. In that respect, I have the peace that God is at hand.

As I have read today, I can say that at the end of the day:

To humans belong the plans of the heart,
but from the Lord comes the proper answer of the tongue,
All of a person's way seems pure to them,
but motives are weighed by the Lord.

Proverbs 16: 1, 2
