CAUGHT MY ATTENTION

I hear a lot about PEACE. We pray for peace in the world, peace within our families, peace at our workplace and so on. How often, though, do we mistake Peace for passivity! How often do we say we are just keeping the peace, when we really are just avoiding a situation that we don't want to confront? Burying the truth doesn't resolve anything! It just leads to further resentments and unrest that grows bigger and bigger. Pray, asking for guidance, then have that hard conversation in truth and love with the intention of a healing resolution. Even if the outcome isn't what you think you wanted, at least truth was spoken and trust God will guide from there. It takes courage to live this way, but in my opinion and experience, this leads to true PEACE. BE WELL!!
