I’ve realized that the key to my peace, not necessarily my “happiness,” lies in turning my life over to my Higher Power one day at a time. ~ Voices of Recovery (Kindle Locations 3466-3468)Happiness versus peace.
Happiness seems to be
dependent on circumstances,
on the moment, tied to external.
Peace bubbles up from inside,
can weather tragedy, adversity,
disappointment. Peace just is.
God, I offer myself to you,
to build with me and do with me
as you will. Take away difficulties,
relieve the bondage of self
not for me but for the greater good.
And that leaves me with peace.
What more could I want?
