When the alarms all go off...

When the alarms all go off at once and everything is clamoring for attention right now...

the timer for the pizza, 

 the smoke alarm from the spilled and burning cheese, 

 the screaming little boy with the bleeding lip, 

 the upset child who was disciplined, 

and the mother calling for order

...where do we find peace?

In the love of God. 

After the alarms have been silenced, we bow our heads and pray. Just as Jesus prayed for us, we pray for the love of God to be in us so that we can show that love to others.
