Wellness For Your Mind

---

Laughter can conceal a heavy heart; when the laughter ends, the grief remains.

-Proverbs 14:13 TLB

We all want peace, joy, and laughter. How is it possible to have those things when we live in a world of constant chaos. We run full speed throughout our day just trying to keep up with the day's agenda; get up, get some coffee, get the children up and dressed for school, all while trying to get yourself dressed for work. Then it's a race to get everywhere on time. You answer to the boss, to the school principal, to your spouse. Who else, what else? Oh, yeah, the bills, the bank account, the endless needs of everyone and everything. Does your mind ever get rest? Do you feel like you're really accomplishing anything?

Is there anything, or anyone who can point us to a place of rest for our mind, for our soul?

If you're like me, and most of the rest of the world, we've tried all the old, and latest fads; meditation, yoga, reading self-help books, listening to motivational speakers, and stories, listening to music, and though you may get some relief, there is never permanent relief. Wouldn't it be nice to experience permanent relief, permanent peace in your mind, and heart? It is possible. Oh, yes! It is very possible, and it is quite simple! I said simple, but what's the hard part? It will require commitment. But hey, you're used to being committed, with all the many aspects of your life that you're doing every day, you show you can be committed when it counts. So how about committing to something that will change your entire life and give you the kind of peace of mind you have always wanted, you have always searched for? 

What's the definition of insanity? Basically, doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different outcome. You've tried everything else, it's time to try something that actually works. The majority of people doing all the things you've tried and more, are still living a life of extreme exasperation, with no lasting peace, joy, love, and fulfillment. What everyone else has been doing isn't working. Wouldn't it be wise to take a new path. 

Happy is the person who finds wisdom and gains understanding. For the profit of wisdom is better than silver, and her wages are better than gold. Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. She offers you life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left. She will guide you down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying. Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly.

-Proverbs 3:13-18 TLB
