Peacemaker? Me?
I wouldn't know what to say?
Besides, How well do we really know each other?
I guess I'd need to get to know You first.
Learn Your ways,
Grasp the way You think,
Embrace Your lifestyle.
I admit,
My life needs an overhaul,
I feel like I've been through hell and back.
Maybe it would do me good
Getting to know You,
Learning Your ways of Peace,
The way You love and care for others.
I can only imagine my heart refreshed,
My soul restored,
Yeah, that sounds nice.
II Corinthians 4:16 (paraphrased)
Don't give it up...not yet. For the time being, ignore discouragement and disappointment. And all the death you're seeing and hearing about, you can't let it win out over you...don't quit now. Even though everything looks like it's falling apart and death is everywhere, there is a way through this. Take a moment and allow Him to renew you within and let His strength become stronger each day. He'll be there. He gave us His word.
I like how being what we really want to be is tied to who we ultimately are in Him. And this is reliable because He has spoken His Word and He keeps His Word.
