Where can I turn for peace?
Where is my solace when other sources cease to make me whole?
When with a wounded heart, anger, or malice, I draw myself apart,
searching my soul?
Where, when my aching grows,
where, when I languish, where, in my need to know, where can I run?
Where is the quiet hand to calm my anguish? Who, who can understand?
He, only One.
He answers privately, reaches my reaching
In my Gethsemane, Savior and friend.
Gentle the peace he finds for my beseeching. Constant he is and kind,
Love without end.

I have had a really wierd last few days...just not feeling my usual crazy self, when I can just go go go! I missed out on church this morning, I had a horrible tension headache and on top of that Ashlynn had a runny nose :(
I was feeling really sad, so I started singing this hymn and it is amazing how a song can lift your spirits. :) Even though life is full of trials and challenges, I know I can always turn to Him for peace. And that is usually what I am searching for, Peace.
