The waters of my soul
are still tonight
the harshness of day’s
light, easing now
into quiet solitude.
I surrender to renewal
knowing that no matter
what tomorrow brings
I have peace within
to guide me.

Very beautifully written💖
When we have peace within, we can survive the even the wildest storms of life.
Let peace b with us.. Amen 🙏
