You have bills to pay, family and friends to nurture, a job, a career to cultivate, hobbies, interests—LIFE. In the midst of all of this, crises occur. You can’t stop them and you can’t plan for them, they just happen and usually when you are least prepared or on a mountain top. Enter CHAOS.
Some thrive in chaos others are overwhelmed by it, paralyzed. We can’t completely avoid it, but we can tame it or nullify the effects it has on our life.
If you are at peace within yourself, the chaos happening around you will have less impact on your life. What brings you joy? Not happiness, but joy! Sink into that peaceful place, wrap it around you like a warm, fuzzy blanket. The troubles of the world won’t seem so bad. You’ll be able to sort your thoughts, and better find the solutions to the problems you’re facing. No, it’s not easy, but the important things in life rarely are.
Create a place of peace, your refuge (Psalms 46), in the midst of the chaos. (Galatians 5:22-23)
