Are you at peace in your heart? When no one is looking and there is nothing to do‪?‬ 5 Minute Bible Study: Find out we aren't as bad as we think because God is better than we know.

    • Christianity

Just last night I went to the mall, with an unexplained sadness.  

But for the first time in a lot of sad shopping days, I came home with nothing.  

I didn't even try on anything.   I just walked in and out of a store.  

When effort was required to see if I would like something, I would dismiss it muttering, "That won't make me happy."  

I've never done that and it wasn't a great feeling. 

It isn't like I was feeling so holy in the moment.  More lazy.  

But, though it was dark, I knew that it wouldn't fix me. 

It wouldn't give me the peace I was needing. That I AM needing.   

That's a victory right? 

Are you searching too? Finding anything good?
