#seeking peace

[dbaydenny]

Cruel as mankind

time rips away bits of youth,

precursor of death

why can't you impart some peace

before you let go of me?

Prayer of the Day

Heavenly Father, I come before You seeking the peace that only You can provide. Help me to trust in Your promises, to cultivate gratitude in my heart, and to embrace the stillness of Your presence. May Your Word guide me in overcoming anxiety and fill my heart with worship that nurtures tranquility.

As I share this peace with others, let it be a reflection of Your love and grace. Thank You for the journey towards inner peace that You have set before me. AMEN.

It’s easy to carry the weight of voices that were never ours to hold, the expectations, the opinions, the noise that drowns out our own truth. But freedom is in the quiet, in the moments we need to just be, to exist without needing to prove or explain. To remember who we are beneath it all.

missing comfort —

Faith only a woman can courage

Courage only a girl can rage

Rage only a child can suffer

Suffering only a fragile heart can abide.

This dynamic finally broken…

Faith brings god’s capricious love

shiny and sharp, and my skin burns under the intensely focused divine glare.

Courage violently picks and tugs

my sensitive nerve strings

sings a jagged melody rocking all my discontent.

Rage encroaching and eroding my personal boundaries

I am triggered, and the subconscious blindly carries the banner of victory, of surrender, of quiescence, of ignition.

Suffering this wanting,

I do not know how to hold my dream

A clumsy dance, a juggle of porcelain knives, tripping not to fall.

Comfort, no comfort

I cycle and recycle,

endless searching and reaching

For the soothing content, the missing comfort

The missing comfort

My mindful morning walk. I have been neglecting myself and have been getting bogged down by stress. I realize at times stress has become a part of who I think I am. I want to let that go because it's suffocating. I need peace.

Personal Venus transits can be some of the hardest transits for me. 🧐

I definitely tend to prefer Mars transits because at least transit Mars can motivate me to actually put my Mars’ energy constructively forward into action instead of just let it eat me from inside.

But looking at how memorably my worth was challenged and difficult interpersonal dynamics I grappled with, now a couple different times within recent years that Venus conjoined my ascendant, PLUS some other examples of Venus transits that come to mind, I can see how these transits put me face to face with one of my biggest life struggles: Not allowing myself to be open to receiving love or blessings, or even peace. My compulsion to turn away from these things is SO strong, with my natal Venus under siege of both Mars and Pluto (not to mention burning away in a fire sign, which Venus does not prefer). 🌸

The biggest struggle of my life is going to be learning how to not struggle. Even with my life of unemployment due to mental health, but still having all my basic expenses covered, it feels like every day is just a battle to use my energy constructively for the things I need to do. Neither my Mars nor Venus is winning in this dance they have together.

It’s time to retreat from social media for a while, maybe make it a point to reconnect with nature more again too. I restored beauty to nature with my Taurus rising man last time we were together, picking up litter with grabber sticks around the local river and bike paths. Maybe making that a goal to do by myself sometimes could be a form of Venus remediation.

The Moon is Venus ruled today, and when she first moved into Taurus last night I broke down in tears, telling her that I just want peace.

Struggle is a universal thing amongst us humans, and you will never be able to tell how much someone struggles unless you are personally walking their path.

I wish less struggle to all of us weary humans right now 🙏

Isaiah 48:18 Why There Is No Peace

Oh, that you had heeded My commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea. Isaiah 48:18 The desire for peace can be found in people all over the world. In many places, this peace is seen as the absence of war and fighting that is occurring on a daily basis. Other places, it is the inner peace that people are looking to attain but are…

Shattered Peace

A gentle breathe, a simple pace Are the things I love the most. Just the quiet times when I can be me Gazing towards the skies and into eternity. Yet does it last, will it survive? Rarely, for in chaos I seem to thrive. Screaming, yelling, wildly rushing Spinning this way and that, head aching and bursting. The sounds, the sights, they destroy the peace Shatter the mood, break the walls…

When surveying individuals across various demographics, the majority express a fundamental desire for a tranquil existence. Their aspirations revolve around basic human needs, such as a nourishing meal, affectionate embraces from loved ones, a comfortable sleeping arrangement, and a nurturing home environment. Moreover, they seek moments of shared joy and companionship, often symbolized by laughter and convivial gatherings over beverages. Tragically, the toll of conflict is borne by these very individuals. A mother deprived of seeing her son again, a father who never returns to his family, siblings robbed of the shared pleasure of communal meals, an aunt whose smile has vanished, and friends lost along the arduous journey—all are casualties. Countless homes were devastated and an untold number of cherished memories shattered simply because external forces deemed it appropriate to unleash the horrors of war upon them.
