Peace in the Valley

Following is a link to an article I posted on another blog. I enjoy gospel music, especially Elvis Presley's gospel music and one of my favorite gospel songs is Peace in the Valley.  While attending a concert at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library I was inspired by the meaning of the song as it was being played and wrote the following article.

Excerpt:  Sometimes I am just weary from the demands of this world upon my human spirit. Daily are the struggles of life filled with moments of heartache, helplessness, and defeat and then I hear those words:  PEACE IN THE VALLEY FOR ME. Then, my mind is cleared, my heart fills with joy and right there in middle of the concert surrounded by friends, family, and strangers, I have peace in the valley of life.
