We fear what is awaiting us with every new day. We're anxious to find a place where we feel we belong, like we're accepted. We stay awake at night thinking of all the work we've yet to finish, and we turn on the news only to find more reasons to lose sleep.

• Another shooting.
• Another contentious election.
• Another untimely death.
• Another reason to fear and let anxiety blow the sails of our souls.

What are we to do?

Here's the truth.

The problem is they don't go deep enough. They don't bring us to the root of our anxiety. It’s like slapping a band aid on a flesh wound; they bring only marginal healing.

What's needed is to go deeper because when you get down to the root, when you dig through the fog of anxious despair, you find there's another reality, another dimension hardly spoken of. This is the dimension of the soul.

We are not only flesh and bones but also souls. Souls who are crafted by divine fingers for something more than what this world has to offer.

If you keep looking, you’ll find an endless supply of reasons for your heart to be troubled. If you look to the Man Christians call Messiah, you’ll find an endless supply of reasons for your heart to have peace. In the process, you’ll find peace isn’t a thing to be had but a God to hold onto.

What you'll find in these pages isn't a quick fix or a one size fits all solution. No. You might not find anything, in fact. Or you may just find your whole being re-oriented at your deepest level. You may find that peace you've always been looking for.

You may find yourself with Jesus of Nazareth.
