~ Sitting In Peace Unknown ~

Unknown Peace is hard to see or sit in. This space where we don't know what the peace even looks like...feels like...much less we don't know the outcome of being in the unknown. Is it even possible to be here...in this unknown place? 

I know I'm in a space in life where Unknown Peace is here pulling me into its presence. The timing would not always have been perfect for this space. Even a month ago...I'm not sure I could have sat here with Unknown Peace. 


Yet, my sitting has a goal attached to it and I believe that's what possibly makes this timing work. With no plan...no end result or goal to push towards I'm not sure it would be that easy or possible to fully surrender to these spaces. 


The reason I believe it's Unknown Peace is this. Peace could come right away...or in moments. However, seeking peace to come in a time surrounded by a situation or circumstance we are hopeful about can make it hard to just sit...to just wait. Hopeful either towards the ending of something we are searching for or hopeful to putting to rest something we are asking or seeking for ways to put down. 

I'm doing both in life at this time. I'm hopeful for outcomes of change and growth and I'm hopeful that towards the end of my seeking and sitting that the Unknown Peace will come...recreating itself into just simply PEACE. A moving on place in my life. Timing waited on through the peace of knowing God has His hand around this space. Also, knowing that through the Unknown I can see an outcome that is somewhat of a surrendering of my own control and a moving in life that allows peace to bring about the ultimate answers. 

I...much like you...feel immense times of being able to function and wait. Oh but...so often, I am stirred to move fast towards wanting this peace to just come. Come and land in these empty soul holes. To fill up emptiness. I'm not sure about you but I find myself trying to create the peace myself...ending up with more turmoil and pain. Why do we rush so? Why do we try to find answers and solutions that can't be found? And...why is it so very hard to know why these answers aren't just right here at our disposal? 

There are times that I feel just fine leaving those questions unanswered. Not bringing a spiritual twist to each and everything we struggle through. God already knows my thoughts, pains and fears. He already knows these places of not wanting to understand Unknown Peace. I know in some-kind of distant or possibly near place...it will come. The Peace...peace that passes my own understanding. Peace that washes these empty times of lost hope away. 

The sun will shine again. The days will begin to feel full and happy. The months will turn to joy again. The years will once again be anticipated. Life does come back. Hope is restored and poured out upon me and upon you. 

Unknown Peace, I will celebrate the place and value you hold in my life. I will be glad in knowing you will turn to pure Peace soon. I stand believing with all powerful authority given to me through Jesus Christ that I can stand firm...full up with God Hope. 

Blessings ~
