Peace Amid the Storm

Serenity is not freedom from the storm but peace amid the storm. ~ Dr. Adrian Rogers
Life throws challenges in our path,
but would you really want life without them?
Be honest. Does floating on clouds
playing a harp year after year without end
sound like heaven or like hell?
You can guess my answer.
Think what you would miss without
the storm that is birth or
when continuing to endure
when the body is worn out,
when the quality has ceased to be.
Would you never want to have the stress
of mastering a new job, learning a new skill,
or growing from a child to an adult?
Storms are part of life.
A part of change, And real peace
comes not in avoiding the storm
but in accepting it, learning from it,
surrendering to the power that controls the storm.
