Galatians 5:22-23 (CEB) "... the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control."
In this world filled chaos and violence we strive to find peace; to BE at peace. The only true, lasting peace that can be found is the peace that is given by Almighty God. We look high and low and even try to manufacture our own peace, but it simply cannot be found. It doesn't exist.
Along with peace comes rest. A calmness of spirit. It must be a conscience thing. It is not contrived. It is not imagined. It is real and is provided upon request by our Heavenly Father. His love for us is so deep and eternal that He willingly provides every NEED we have. Notice I said "need" and not "want". Do not confuse the two. Scripture is clear that God knows exactly what we are in need of and is ready, willing and able to provide each and every one of those things to sustain us.
So this day ask God for His peace that passes all understanding. Before you know it your mind will clear and your heart and spirit will be at rest. Peace. Tranquility ... even in the midst of turmoil. Focus on Christ and not on that which is going on all around you and you will find peace.
WALK WITH THE KING TODAY AND BE A BLESSING!
