Psalms 29:11 NIV
[11] The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.
Peace. It may be the most fleeting and fragile thing we seek. It’s here today and gone tomorrow depending on what happens. It can be broken and chased away by small and simple things.
Yet, God gives His people strength to endure what shakes their peace and He restores peace to them.
Things in our lives and our days may try to crush us and take our peace, but if our peace is from God then we are secure in Him.
Take away:
The peace the world offers will not last, but the peace of God is forever.

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.
