peace

"Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me."
-Psalm 51: 10-12

"...sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything."
-Matthew 6:10

"Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God."
-2 Corinthians 7

these verses have taken on new meaning for me.
