"For those who live according to the flesh are
concerned with the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the
Spirit with the things of the Spirit. The concern for the flesh is death, but
the concern of the Spirit is life and peace." (Romans 8:5-6)
When your heart and mind are set on the flesh and on the
world, there is nothing but unrest and strife. There is no peace. Your heart is
unsettled, and your relationships are too. But set your mind on the Spirit and
on the things of God, and soon your heart finds peace and life itself.
Remember the simple prayer of Saint Augustine: "Our hearts are
restless until they rest in You, O Lord."
