We can not quiet the storm,
Yet we can go to the deepest part of our soul
and find peace.
The part of the soul where the eternal Jesus says,
“My peace I give unto you, be still.”
We can not control anyone, or make them behave the way we wish,
But we can do inner work, to control our responses
and reactions.
Little by little we can become like the mighty oak, whose deep roots
even the mighty wind can not disturb.
Jesus calls, “Come to me, fear not, I overcame the storm,
and so can you.”
We can not make anyone love us,
but we can grow to love anyone.
We can see through the physical body, to the inner core of all humanity,
The invisible soul, made in the image of Holy God.
By loving the unseen, we love the seen.
We can start with ourselves.
Jesus loves me, this I know.
This love always spills over, regardless of the circumstances.
We can not acquire this ability all at once.
We can begin with weakness and progress to strength,
minute by minute,
hour by hour,
day by day.
Jesus whispers,
“I am with you”,
“I will never leave you on your journey”.
“I share this walk of humanity with you, and rejoice with you,
as all your days, grow into beauty.
You can.
