I'll admit that I'm the type of person that can get quickly flustered. Small problems can often trigger feelings of anger or anxiety. Unfortunately life finds a way to bring situations like that across our paths regularly. At times like that it can be difficult to get centered, calm and able to focus again.
A pendulum very simply works on a principle that a suspended weight bob can swing back and forth until gravities force brings it back into the equilibrium position (still). So how do we get to a point of emotional and spiritual equilibrium?
What works for me is to have easy access to either scripture or a devotional that can bring my wandering thoughts back to God. As I read and meditate on God, I find my soul is gently calmed and I can more quickly find peace and continue to focus on other activities that require my attention.
