Perfect Peace

I have a wonderful  Facebook friend who posts Bible verses each day with beautiful photos from her stunning farm in Virginia. It always lifts my spirit. There is so much sadness, fear, evil, confrontation, despair, and hopelessness in the world. It is heartening to see that spash of optimism each day with the reminder that God made a beautiful world.

Today, I really needed that. Honestly, every day I need that. God is in control. God loves you and He loves me. He longs for us to enter His Kingdom and share the bounty of eternity in Heaven. That is awesome. It is important to remember that.
