Finding peace in the storm

For a long time I struggled-I depressed, I lashed out, I was so angry....I was angry most of the time....at him and at nyself. I found that I held the key to my peace all along. God knew it-He just needed me to finally open my eyes to see. We all hold the key to our own peace and we must guard it with everything we have. When I look at myself now I see a fighter, a warrior, a strong woman of God cloaked in the armor of God that will not yield to the delusions of a very sick person and his band of enablers. When I look at my oldest daughter and wipe away her tears I see a strong resilient beautiful child of God that has gone through so much but knows without a doubt the truth. No matter what life throws at me, I have peace. Peace comes from within and it's sonething I'll fight too the and nail to retain for myself and my girls. I have found peace....peace in the storm. Thank you, God!!!!!

A powerful and beautiful image, just like the woman who wrote it!

Thank you for sharing your strength here; it is always inspiring to me.

FOG,
Isn't it an amazing feeling!! Did you ever think you would have that again in your life?

I feel it also, I love my job, co workers, friends, my home just everything. I am so grateful that I am in "this" place right now. You are right, once we opened our hearts and let God take control, serenity came our way.

Hugs my friend, I hope you and your girls have an amazing holiday season!!
