Wise Words

6 Nov

Hear these wise words, both general and particular, from the late Buddhist master of contemplative spirituality, Thich Nhat Hanh: “An entire sea of water can’t sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. Similarly, the negativity of the world can’t put you down unless you allow it to get inside you.”

This is a general truth that can be a foundational pillar for life. It is also a particular truth when storms arise and the sea threatens. Pair this wisdom up with 1 John 4:4 “Greater is He that is in you than he who is in the world,” and you’re set for any day and any circumstance.

May peace live within you today and all your tomorrows.
