2 Chronicles 31:1-21; Ezekiel 47:1-23; 1 John 1:1-2:11
Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all. 2 Thessalonians 3:16 NKJV
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27 NKJV
Whether globally or personally, everyone wants peace. But it seems unreachable. Peace that is dependent on just the right circumstances is fragile. The Christian is promised something far better. It is the peace that depends on the Lord’s control of our circumstances. It is a peace that originates in “the Lord of peace Himself.” Trust Him today in your life and learn to know His peace. —Brian Gunning
O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry, everything to God in prayer. —J. Scriven
