One recent night I was struggling; lots of unsettledness. I’m housesitting, which presents its own challenges, but one wonderful thing about it is that in the solitude I can pour my guts out to God. And I did that night. And it was so good. And I felt closer to God than I had in awhile. The unsettledness, the craziness, the lack of peace, I felt it drawing me to God. And I thought, maybe this is how it works, this roiling heart of mine is causing me to run back to God and renew my relationship with him. Because it’s been sort of dry lately.

God is so good. I can’t really emphasize enough how peaceful I’ve been. What a wonderful peace is in the Lord.
