You know, it's easy to get bogged down in old turmoils and heartaches - especially when something happens to trigger them, like running into someone who was a part of it all. It's all too easy to allow your thoughts to trail along all the darkened passages surrounding them. And if you allow that to happen, it's not long before you can feel swallowed up in it all again.
Once again, that story of Peter walking on the water comes to mind. Keep your eyes on the master of peace and don't let these moments distract you and drag you down. He can keep you out of that mess and filled with the sweetness of spirit in him. Our task is just to keep our eyes on him - and our heart's horizon will stay constant and true.
