all is calm

I cut the phrase "all is calm" out of pretty white glittery paper as part of our christmas decorations this year. I've packed everything away except for this & I've been thinking I might leave it up awhile longer. sometimes I just need a little reminder to stop, take a deep breath & tell myself that god is in control. hope you all have a restful weekend!
