"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."
English poet and author Penny Chambers has looked at all the other ways and found that Jesus is the way. However, it is a tough and suffering journey.
"But," says Penny, "at least I know where I'm going!"
Psalm 1 (Penny's favourite psalm)
Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the
counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
But his delight is in the law of
the Lord,
and on his law he meditates
day and night.
He is like a tree planted by
streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
