SEARCHING FOR PEACE


Luke 24:36 (NKJV) 

..., "Peace to you." 


      The world needs to heed the blessing of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Fear and confusion had risen in the hearts of the disciples, they were terrified of the next moment and Jesus appears saying "Peace to you." 


      Today there are wars and violence against man, nature is revealing God's awesome hand, and the Creator still asks, "Why are you troubled, why do doubts arise in your hearts," He encourages us, "look" to Him. However, we appear to be very busy, preoccupied with living. Everyone seems to be able to communicate in a moments notice, eyes and ears are focused on electronic devices, we are so busy with the instant, that we cannot see or hear the obvious. What is that you ask? 


      We need peace, peace of mind, peace in the heart, peace in our confidence of The God who has saved us from a lost and dying world. Jesus is Lord of all, He is over all, He is in control of all and Jesus is the author of all life in men. John 1:1-4 Take charge of your destiny today by trusting Jesus Christ with every area of your life, he wants to give you Eternal life with Him. He wants to bless you with the "peace that passes understanding," however He says, first "repent and ask forgiveness for our sins," for His peace, I have done that have you? I pray you will!


Heavenly Father we trust You right now for the promise of Your peace. Let that peace permeate our lives so that others see You in us. I trust You to use life's circumstances to bring others to Jesus through me. Amen
