Peace That Disturbs

-
Hi Family!

I was recently in a situation where someone was a little "excited" about something going on. And when they brought the situation to me, they actually ran into my Peace. You see, in that moment I heard the situation. I heard the frustration. But there was not a single thing that I could do about it. So I acknowledged it and moved on with what I was doing.

You see, there comes a point in your life when you realize that you can't "react" to every single thing that comes to you. Well.... you do react, but NOT EVERYTHING warrants a negatively excited reaction. Not everything demands for me to fuss and be frustrated and argue and be upset. Some things I can't do anything about. And it does not mean that I don't care at that point. I just take on the mentality of "It Is What It Is" or "Gods Going To Have To Handle This One". What else can I do when I can't do anything? Pray. We can all always pray. 

Now, i titled this Peace That Disturbs. I'm sure you are wondering how that makes sense. Peace is not meant to disturb. But it does. And although its not always easy for everyone to handle, its effective if managed correctly. You see when an excited person is confronted with this kind of peace, it bothers them. They wonder if you care about the situation. Yes you care. Yes it may bother you. But not so much to where your heart is affected and it changes your mood. This type of Peace Disturbs the plans of the enemy! Remember, the thief comes to steal kill and destroy (John 10:10) and he will use whatever means he can including your friends and family (including the family at home, so remember Ephesians 6:12 at all times!). So when he tries to steal your Joy with issues, problems, situations and drama, and he is met with Your PEACE, it DISTURBS his plan!! 

So next time he plans that attack on your mind and heart and seems like there is nothing you can do about it, let's all be prepared by letting it bump into Our Peace That Disturbs and watch God go for the slam dunk recovery!

Enjoy these images today for inspiration about peace or just to smile. I'm at that point in my life where I want peace, Gods Peace, more than anything else in my life. And by faith, i accept it.  

I love you all and hope you have the peace you need today as well. 

Be blessed, 
Ana

Snow White and the 7... sins (continued)

Hi Family, So on Friday I told you about a couple of things. My love for Disney movies (don't judge people!) and 7 sins per the world and then the 7 per The Word. So since the Lord brought me to the 7 sins per the world first, we are going to follow His lead. His way is best right? So after thinking about the seven dwarfs and the 7 deadly sins... I thought about the characteristics about those sins. And how they are in us, but we don't see them. Maybe not all of the sins, maybe only one. Maybe you are so absolutely faithful and perfect in life that you have none. But for the majority of us, myself included, we have at minimum one of the seven. They are sins that are hidden even from themselves, but like a mirror they can usually see their reflection in others. For example, a prideful person cannot see the spirit of Pride or Arrogance in themselves. But they can see it in others. Because of these types of sins (which for MY OWN purposes, i'll call them behavio

Psalm 51:7 NLT Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean: wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Hi Family! If you know me, in my inner heart, you know that I'm a Disney fan. I had to take the day off work yesterday and I got caught up with the kids watching Disney movies. Starting, of course, with a new Disney movie because Lareina kept asking to watch it. It was Descendants 2. Now, let me be honest, I saw the first Descendants movie and I LOVED IT. LOL! So although I fought and fought not to watch this one for weeks, I still ended up watching it yesterday. I hadn't realized how much I would connect with the movie. Outside of the songs and the dancing and the good vs. evil plot of course. But the message was a really good message about being your own Authentic You. And how important it is to be your own authentic you ESPECIALLY for and around the people you love. Because it's exhausting and truly debilitating (mentally and physically) to try to live up to the ex
