Leaning the head against the chair, Sonya whispered to herself what went wrong? Unconscious tears slipped down her face. She couldn't find any satisfactory reason. After a while, Sonya experienced true peace.

When the autumn was ending, Sonya thought of Christmas season. She recalled the last Christmas when she found peace, joy, hope and love in her life for the first time. Sonya had a good time with her dearest brother. She wished to keep happiness in mind forever.

After coming back from the church on Sunday, Sonya spent some times by herself in the quiet room. She relaxed and felt peaceful without any interruption. She usually read a short story and meditated the bible verses from the Sunday sermon. She treasured these precious moments in peace and tranquility after weekdays at school. She hoped that everything would go alright in the following week.

But these days Sonya didn't get any information from her family members including her beloved brother. Sonya has not been able to know what went wrong while the country was facing with the rumors of wars. She became anxious and apprehensive.

When there is no way, Sonya asked God for true peace. God sent His Only Son to mankind more than 2000 years ago. His name is Jesus. The Son of God came to the earth as a Babe of Bethlehem, bringing everlasting peace to Sonya and all the mankind. Sonya felt sweet peace from the King of Peace who lives in her heart today.
