Quiet

“Be quiet! Come out of him!” -Luke 4:35

As much as I am forced to keep silent because of my sore throat and croaky voice right now, I believe that the Lord is uttering the same line as in the verse above, with great authority and power, to the green-eyed monsters within me. Yes, they have been silent lately and I am finally at peace. Nothing beats the calm that comes from the Lord.

I know nothing can tear me apart when I am on the Lord's side.

I pray to the heavens that this persists. I admit that I am not the most positive person on this earth but with the Lord's grace, I am trying my best to change my usual ways of thinking... to go beyond my comfort zone and brave the uncertainties in life that often rattle me and get the best of me.

Hope. He gives me hope. He gives me something to look forward to each day. After all, the darkest days become our brightest when we are with God.

Lord, I desire Your comfort and peace. Amen.

Ciao!
