"....I realized that most of my life was lived in a state of fear, worry, & constant servitude to ensure others were happy, unknowingly choosing to do this.
As I thought through the years, I have no idea when or if I ever had true peace in my heart & soul.
So when it hit me that night, it really was WOW~ it all really boiled down to that?!
To be honest, never had a revelation quite like that -about a feeling or state."

These last few years has felt like the world has been been dominated by Goliath. I'm sure, whether a believer or not, most people know of the story of "David & Goliath".
David conquered something far bigger than himself. Much much bigger. He went into battle with only 5 smooth stones. He came out a victor because of his 1 smooth stone but what wasn't seen was the armor of courage he had through his faith. He believed he would.
Now I don't know about you, but I do believe. I grew up going to catechism & saying the Lord's prayer before bed every night. Truth be told I barely understood much from my catechism because it seemed so deep with not enough for an elementary child to understand.
So over the years I drifted from what seemed was too hard to understand. But always had my faith intact because I have witnessed my prayers answered. However I was not giving enough gratitude to them as I rushed busily through life. Complacency really.
I'm sure like many the last few years, as we all spent time away from the things would have normally been doing, we've reevaluated much. I was also craving more peace. Ironically enough, at the beginning for this whole world changing event, I had a very odd sense of peace.
