Content


This past week has been an amazing week. I have fallen into a state of complete contentment. I am not worried what the future holds. I am not bogged down by guilt from the past. I am just here. This day. I am rejoicing in all God is doing for me. I am grateful for this moment, for this peace. Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has yet to come. There is nothing I can do for either. As a friend told me yesterday. "You can't change the past. You can't control the future. You can only choose the present." So today I choose the present. This is so pleasant to just rest in His arms. The lake yesterday was so completely calm. I have never seen such a peace over the lake. You could hardly tell where the lake ended and the sky began. I feel that peace in my soul. I wish I would know that this feeling would continue. But just like the unpredictability of the lake, I know that this will change. The wind will blow, the storms will come, the rain will pound. But, today, it is calm. Today I will enjoy the beauty, the peace.
