One of my favorite hymns is written by Horatio G. Spafford. This is just the first verse:
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
He wrote this hymn after several painful events in his life - the death of his only son, the great Chicago fire which ruined him financially, the death of all four of his daughters after a collision with a sailing ship and when he traveled to meet his grieving wife, he wrote these words as his ship passed near where his daughter had died.
Peace. So few find it, but I hope that whoever received this mug can find some peace today. :)

Love this mission! That mug is so neat. I love the description of the word peace on the outside of the box. I have no doubt that your kind gesture put a smile on someones face. Great job. Keep it up! :)
