Peace and Serenity

A dear friend is having surgery this morning, please join me in praying for his speedy recovery. 🙏
I would like to share with you my theory on Peace. Oxford defines peace as “freedom from disturbance; tranquility.” Tranquility is defined as “the quality or state of being tranquil; calm.” Webster’s defines tranquil as “free from agitation of mind or spirit a tranquil self-assurance. Free from disturbance or turmoil.”
I don’t know about you but “free from agitation of mind or spirit,” is the ultimate goal. For me Peace is the epitome of Joy, Love, and Hope. Peace is what I work toward, do I achieve it every day? No, but I keep working toward it, I may struggle with achieving serenity, but I continue to pray. Serenity is defined as “the state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled.” So perhaps what I am truly striving for is not just Peace but also true Serenity.
This seems like a short post, but isn’t Peace and Serenity meant to be uncomplicated?
Have a serene and peaceful day. 💞
