At breakfast, with our morning devotionals, we've been reading through a small book we bought at Walmart titled One-Minute Prayers To Start Your Day, text by Hope Lyda.

The morning after our very near miss with the train, we read this.  It is amazing how God speaks to us to tell us what He knows we need to hear.

Legacy of Peace

LORD, you establish peace for us; all that we have accomplished you have done for us.  Isaiah 26:12

Sometimes it takes chaos for me to better understand peace.  When I am in the midst of circumstances that seem out of control or volatile, I can feel a stillness deep within that allows me to still seek You.  I am sensing Your peace.   When rough times are smoothed over and I am able to accomplish a goal, I know I have witnessed your peaceful protection.

You do so much for me, Lord.  Without You, I am without direction and purpose.  Without You, I could not achieve anything of eternal value.  Thank you, God, for caring for your child.

It is just amazing how God puts what we need, right there when we need it.
