When I started this 31 day series, I didn’t know how life changing writing about a subject for a whole month, could be.
I mean, I knew I would learn.
The Lord put this topic on my heart to write about.
A topic that I struggle with daily.
I had friends and family cheering me on.
I’m still not completely at peace all day, every day (not sure anyone is?!)
But, honestly?
I feel better.
I feel lighter.
I feel more at peace.
I have learned to trust in HIM even more than I ever did before.
Anytime I have started to get anxious, I try to pray instead and honestly, it has helped.
It’s been a whirlwind 31 days for me as a person, for our little family, just life in general.
Amongst the peace, there have been a lot of not so peaceful moments.
There has been doubt, worry, anxiety.
There has been lots of tears.
There has been LOTS of praying and lots of thinking.
I have had some major roadblocks this month that have caused me lots of stress and anxiety. One of those roadblocks was the reason that this 31 day series turned into a 24 day series. I spent a lot of time worrying and stressing about it. But, finally realized that it happened for a reason and it is what it is.
We closed on our current house and are about to embark on a scary, but exciting new adventure as a family.
And lots more.
Just a lot of stuff.
All the ups and downs of life that happen in a month-long period.
Writing about it has definitely helped me through certain situations.
I am extremely thankful that I chose to embark on this 31 day journey to Finding Peace. I have loved reading every single one of your comments and emails to me, on this subject. It makes me happy to hear that this series has helped you, because it has for sure helped me. Letting go and just letting God do his thing, so to speak, is way easier said than done, at least for me. I am positive this is something that I will be working on for a long time, if not forever.
I feel like I am on the right path.
I hope you are too.
I have learned to find peace in some of the most un-peaceful situations and I honestly believe I wouldn’t have found peace in those situations, if not for this series, because it has made me think…a lot!
Thank you so much for following along with me on this journey. I am extremely thankful for each and every one of you who come over here to read my little bloggity blog. 🙂
Praying for peace for all of you!
This is the 24th and final post in a 31 day series about Finding Peace. You can find all of the posts in this series, here.
I think it’s a normal reaction we humans have. We easily get anxious, nervous, etc., by certain events. What’s hard is to remember and have faith in God that He has everything under control, so we really have nothing to fear.
It’s hard but i have to practice on my faith in that and try to relax, LOL! Thank you for sharing a lovely post with all of us. 🙂
