Shalom

I learned something at retreat this past weekend. Thought I would share it with you guys.

As most of you probably know. Shalom means "peace" in Hebrew...at least that's the simple definition, but there's more to it. Shalom also means "life the way it was meant to be" and "whole and complete". Now just stop and think about that for a moment...Life as it was meant to be...no tears, no sorrow, no pain...no sin...that's peace. REAL peace. All consuming whole and complete peace. That is a picture of what abiding in God should be. Absolute peace. Today is today and tomorrow is tomorrow. Being a child of God and letting your Father do all the worrying let him take care of all the important stuff. All we need to do is hold onto his finger with our child sized hands and look up into his face...Life the way it was meant to be.

And that is all I feel like writing for now. Haha there's another aspect of Shalom that I haven't shared yet, but I'll share later. Stay tuned!
