Meditations on God

Don’t give your peace away.

You worked hard to earn it and you will have to work equally hard to maintain it.

Don’t give it away frivolously to every frustration and irritation that comes your way.

Do not allow anger, fear, jealousy, or envy to distract you from what matters.

Life is unfair, people will treat you poorly, and things will not always go your way.

You cannot control everything that happens, but you can decide to who you want to be in the midst of it.

Protect your peace like your peace depends on it.
