a peaceful walk....

so i am sitting here at my computer, enjoying this lovely spring evening, and it is interupted by the sounds of sirens coming closer and closer. Finally, now sounding like they are right out side of my home, the sirens come to an abrupt stop. i look around and see nothing. no action at all.
this sort of thing seems to be very common in this neighborhood. honestly the block itself is very quiet, serene and rather 'leave it to beaver" like. But we are only one block away from a main road, that connects to a highway. So chaos is just around the corner.
it kind of reminds me of what walking with Christ is like in a way. inside myself i feel safe, secure, serene, but when i look and listen around me, the world is not really like that at all. it is chaos. thank the Lord for his peace.
