Yesterday evening I simply felt very peaceful. It felt like I didn't have any worries. I can't describe it well, although maybe I was sleepy and my mind shut down. Probably it's due to my acceptance that ORD is near, and recognition there is more to life than army. I had thought a lot and written about Singapore during the day, and though I seemed really concerned for the morale of the people, as well as it's demographics, I guess at the end it doesn't really matter, because the kingdoms of this world are in God's hand to rise and fall as He wishes.
This afternoon I went to KS, it was really enjoyable, but I think I've difficulty listening to what others say. Anyway, Jessie told me she dreamt of my funeral last night. I suppose that ties in here, doesn't it? True peace is when it would hardly concern myself even if I died, because the cares of this world are heavy when I worry over them. Yet Jesus bears this burden lightly, for to Him all things are possible. If to live is Christ and to die is gain, then I can trust in providence.
Looking back through the archives, I noticed this post just a little more than a year ago. I think I'll quote this line, "Content to let the world go by, to know no pain nor loss". Surely that describes peace, because even though I forget so often, I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
