Are you happy? What would give you a moment of peace? To be able to smile and actually be content with life, not because of an outward cause, but to have peace from within. Not even the wealthiest person in the world is guaranteed peace. There is no money, achievement or success that can give you inner peace, that can cure depression, help you overcome an addiction or heal past traumas that haunt you even today. But there is hope, peace. I leave with you. My peace I give you. What better peace than the peace that comes from God, one not contingent upon wealth or external causes, but from confidence in His power?
