Just me trying to be honest with God.

Peace is not so much a feeling as it is a resignation, a reconciliation to God's will.

When we speak of making our peace with something, we resign ourselves to it and accept it for what it is. For the Christian, this means accepting our circumstances as something that God has allowed, and to give Him thanks in them. Our thanks is not for the circumstances but in them. Our circumstances may not be good, but God is able to work good out of them. We express faith in His promise to do so by giving Him such thanks.  “In everything give thanks, for this is God’s will for you who are in Christ Jesus.” 1Thess.4 Conversations Within” ts 1/19/2016
