Keeping The Peace

'First keep the Peace within yourself, then you can also bring Peace to others.'
-Thomas A. Kempis

I have been sitting here for a couple of hours contemplating God's Love and a great sense of peace came over me. It always does when I really take the time to experience how infinite His Love is and what He has done not only in my life but in the life of others. I think about all living things in His universe and I am truly filled with awe...He cares for every living thing and sees that all are taken care of...the birds are fed, the flowers and trees are watered, the earth is renewed by the leaves that fall...He does it all! His Universe is at Peace and through it we finite human beings are given the opportunity to find Peace within ourselves.

Today I am grateful for the leaves that have fallen in my life...for they have renewed my soul!
