"Restore us, O God Almighty; make your face shine upon us, that we may be saved."
Psalm 80:7
When I first looked at You, Lord, Your face radiated Your mercy, and my life was illuminated with peace. I was coming from a time of working against myself, You and life. I seemed to view everything as a "me against them" situation. Your peace changed that. You restored my balance and my understanding of people.
Now when I turn to face other people, I offer them peace. I speak words of kindness. I extend forgiveness readily. I do not hold back my affection or joy in who they are. I accept them as You accept me. And I am saved.
