I Find Deep Peace in Prayer.
The busier I am, the more elusive peace can feel. When I feel peace slipping away from me, I know I have to quiet my mind and open my heart to rediscover the peace of God within me. I begin by breathing deeply, my respiration slowly steadying my thoughts and calming my feelings. As I relax, I affirm: Deep, abiding peace is mine now. In prayer, I release thoughts of everything I must do. I affirm divine order when I think of schedules, obligations, and tasks. I use my power of imagination to see myself skillfully handling everything I have taken on with poise and time to spare. Peace no longer feels elusive, because I have discovered it within myself.
I have said this to you, so that in me you may have peace.—John 16:33
