A little over 3 years ago, I surrendered my life to Christ. To all my non-believing friends, I know that terminology sounds crazy. Sometimes I still don't know how to say it, but that is what happened. To all my believing friends, I don't think that is exactly right either because I don't think it completely explains that I really had very little to do with it, it was all God. He had been pursuing me for a very long time, I just finally gave in. And it has been the best thing that has ever happened to me.
Now, that is not to say that everything is hunky dory, flowers and sunshine. But since that day I have an unexplainable peace. I definitely have my moments of frustrations, doubt, sadness, anger, all those great emotions we go through. But there is also a peace I can always tap into.
A short time after I starting attending Cool River Church (and it really is cool), our pastor shared a message about peace and how to get it. The main point was that peace is not a thing or emotion, but a person- Jesus. I have personally experienced the peace that is Jesus. If you haven't, you should cuz it's awesome.
So, that is why I sign off with Peace. I know you probably thought it was because I live so close to Boulder, or my long hippie hair:)
Peace,
Holly
