I have no idea the "why", at times to the events placed in my life. The joy is, trusting God loves me, and desires only the best for my life.  The reason,  to all that takes place in the ever running minutes of my life, is often times a mystery. Being aware, of His sovereign power in my life, this is where I find the rest, I so deeply desire.

Philippians 2:12-13 (NASB)

12 So then, my beloved, just as you 

have always obeyed, not as in my 

presence only, but now much more in 

my absence, work out your salvation 

with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God 

who is at work in you, both to will and 

to work for His good pleasure.

It is simply in the acknowledgement of His (God's) perfect plan in regards,  to the everyday moments of my life. In these most ordinary circumstances, I can experience a ongoing conversation with my Savior. When I acknowledge that God is directing my day, it is then that the peace I seek after is found.

2 Thessalonians 3:16 (NASB)

16 Now may the Lord of peace Himself continually grant you peace in every [a]circumstance. The Lord be with you all!

Lord,help me to understand how to be a channel of Your love to this world, to those around me. Teach me how to example this love to my children, so in this way they too might be a candle in this dark world.

Stepping heavenward a little each day,

It is when we are least aware of our "good works" , not seeking the acknowledgement of man's praises, that God's kingdom purposes abound greatly in our lives.
