"Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset."
I'm the Queen of rushing.
I'm one busy woman.
But I have always believed that busyness does not equate importance.
To me, busyness equates a lack of preparation.
And friends, I'm all too often unprepared.
This past week, I was bombarded with terrible, terrible news.
The kind of news that made me instantly weep.
I wept out of betrayal.
I wept out of lost trust.
I wept out of this indescribable feeling of pain.
Then I prayed.
And though relief came slowly, God reminded me that sometimes in life, we have to choose peace.
We can cry.
We can feel pain.
But it should always lead to peace.
This week, I'm not in any hurry.
I'm not willing to sacrifice my inner peace for anything.
Not for people's mistakes.
Not for people's misjudgments.
Not for people's missteps.
Whatever you're feeling today, remember that you are beyond worthy of peace and gentleness.
You are worth giving each moment--no matter how painful--the emotions due.
Then finding peace.
So, never be in a hurry.
Life will wait.
