The Peaceful Years~ A Birthday Praise

Father can give you the Peaceful Years at any time of your life- be you 25 or 85. They usually come after years of unrelenting turbulence, trials and tests. On this July 31st, my birthday, I will begin the Peaceful Years in Jesus' name. In these years, I will be immersed in "green pastures and still waters."

I will learn many things and open new areas of existence with the excitement of a little girl opening gifts on Christmas Eve.The things I already know will be honed and enhanced by the Holy Spirit for kingdom building and Kingdom giving.

 One could call the onset of the Peaceful Years a breakthrough....God's light "breaking" a hole in a wall of darkness and upheaval. No longer being tossed from pillar to post, I will be stable, being able to "dig in" and take root for the first time since leaving my parent's home some 40 years ago.

My relationships will reflect the love and favor of Jehovah Jireh..."Ports in a storm." A small circle of comrades, workmates and sweethearts coming together to love and to be loved.

Peace. Yes, I am ready for these years to overtake me like an ocean wave in the 12th hour....
Heal me.
