El renacimiento de la vida

There is a peace that our souls seek. I encounter a world of turmoil in every direction that I face and I am troubled by the lack of peace that I see. This week, I found myself wanting to escape all the people that surrounded me at school and at home, just to have a moment of the still quiteness that comes with peace. My students concern me, because they seemingly thrive on picking on each other, an action that creates an atmosphere of unrest in my classroom. I found myself appalled by their incesant desire to pick, pick, pick this week, and it made me very irritated. They are quick to speak words of discouragement to each other, and constantly ready to fight their way out of the holes that they keep digging for themselves. There was one day that I just wanted to leave them where they were, and seek out a place of peace to escape the unrest of the high school. Today, I am going to seek out a peaceful place to allow my soul a place to rest and be restored by the almighty. My soul needs moments like these, and I have found myself starving it of this in the past few weeks. Peace. We seek to be at peace with the Lord, in our souls, and with everyone around us. Lord, grant me a moment of quiet rest and restore me today.
