The Madness of Hope

When The Heart Is At Peace

Peace leaves when there is conflict in the heart: when passions conflict, when we loose our focus.
I’m not sure there is ever a time where there is no inner conflict. We want a big house but don’t want to clean it. We love eating but hate the added pounds. We want the high paying job but hate the stress.
We want to live godly lives but Satan throws us curves and our soul wars inside the cavity of skin and muscle. When the fire gets too intense, our outer shells begin to melt and cave.
There was a war but the good side one and peace now reigns. God is good.
