On the Peace Path

"Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace."

I am not one to quote scripture, but there it is...Proverbs 3:17.

I read the verse last Friday, and I liked it so much that I wrote it down, folded it up, and put it in my pocket for the day. It's still there. My birthday present from the universe.

Those little words have had a big effect on me. They loop in my head, and immediately diffuse my not-so-pleasant-thoughts (ahem...should they occur).  They make me want to smile at strangers, and live better, bigger...from the heart.

It's been working on my kids too.  Curing most cases of sibling rivalry and/or "tweenness"...now that's peace, baby!

How about you? Do you have any words like this that can melt you in the moment, and keep you on the path of peace?
