Within

God is working deep within each of us. Whenever something happens that may knock us away from peace, we all have the decision to say to ourselves - "I can choose peace rather than this." How can we do that? I say that despite how we may feel sometimes about the circumstances that are going on around us, we can know that God is are work deep within us. What is going on around us has little to do with what is happening in us.

God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. Ephesians 3:20
So there are times when our emotions and thoughts may want to tell us how circumstances in our life are not fair, or all wrong, or never going to work out. However, we have the God of the universe, the Creator of everything, spirit working deep within us! This God can do anything. Not only can God do anything, but more than we could ever imagine. The most amazing thing is God does this gently and deeply. We must take time to be quiet and still to know this working and allow God to do this gentle pushing. Change and peace takes place by being aware of our thoughts and feelings about things around us and allowing God's Spirit to work. Peace is there and we can always choose it rather than this. Remember that today. Remember that God is working deeply in you. God is gently with you and we must slow down enough to be able to notice this gentle and quiet working.
Namaste'
