Do You Take The Bait....

I am thankful for the ability to remain steady in my encounters and challenges. It took me years to accomplish this trait. To walk away from those who engage in drama, to not take the bait... so to speak. So often we lose the way and chase the wrong path because we are chasing the bait others release. I rejoice in the peace that passes all understanding and the One who provides it. I give both the challenges and the blessings to God in gratitude. Nothing escapes God's notice- not even the number of hairs on my head. I chose not to be spun out by daily occurrence or joy stealers. instead I rest in the knowledge that "all things work together for my greatest good". How about you are you steady today, this week, this year or have you let the job, the finances, children or relationships rob you of that peace? No one can take it away without you letting them. Would you consider joining me on the pursuit to remain steady and of good cheer and model it to those around you?
