Peace is my companion as I walk through the uncertainty of life. Fear and doubt flee from me when I hold the hand of peace. I may slip or stumble on the bumpy road of life, but when I hold on to the hand of peace, I stand tall.
I remind myself that, no matter what, if I keep planting the seeds of beauty in my life, beautiful things will grow. I continue to invest in my family, friends, and community, confident of the beauty to come as a result.
There are times when it seems like nothing is certain. The things that I thought would never change begin to transform. Yet, in those times, I place my trust in someone higher than myself. I rest on the thought that, although things change, there are still things that always remain the same.
I remain calm in the midst of disillusionment because peace changes my perspective. Instead of seeing disappointment as the end of a dream, I choose to see it as the beginning of a new goal.
When I think of the potential for beauty in all who surround me, I have hope. Weeds of uncertainty are unable grow into discouragement because I choose to focus my eyes on the positive. I am optimistic about my future because I know it will be full of beauty and peace.
Today, I choose to hold the hand of peace through the valley of uncertainty. I may not be sure about what the future holds, but I am sure that whatever it is, I can get through it.
