Introduction

Taking time for these moments can help you find perfect peace. We all long for peace. Life is so full of dangers and pitfalls in both the physical and spiritual realms. We all may find some peace in different ways and at different times. Sometimes it can take almost a lifetime to find the perfect peace that this book is all about. People are not always looking in the right places or in the right way. Many people think that they will find it when their life’s dreams have been fulfilled, such as marrying, having children, or getting the right job. Many think that money can give them peace, and it does to some extent prevent the everyday worries of existence. But money cannot buy peace since it often comes with much anxiety, such as where to keep it safely, or cares and decisions that have to be made about it. It always leads to wanting more. It cannot buy health or the perfect peace that this book is all about.

We cannot find peace in the moment if we are always hurrying on to the next. But one kind of waiting does bring peace

This poem was inspired by the scripture Isaiah 40:31 Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not grow weary. They shall walk and not faint
