Peace Be Still

"He makes me live without worry."

"My peace I give to you."

John 14:27 (NKJV)

At times it can seem like worry overwhelms us and that it is impossible to live without anxiety. But Christ is never worried or anxious. Though the storms toss our boat in life, He is resting and peaceful in our boat! And He is standing up in authority and calming the stormy seas of our life and of our heart. He is always working to bring peace to us and to let us feel the peace He has within us. It's true, Mr. Peace Himself is within us. His peace in us is big enough and strong enough for any situation. It is not up to us to find, access, stir up or deserve this peace. It is already here, for He is already here. He will manifest His peace in us without our help, without us doing one solitary thing! It's His job, not ours. We can simply BE in His presence of peace while He takes care of everything!

A Thought: Right now Jesus is saying to my heart, "Peace, be still."

May the amazing grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the extravagant love of God, and the intimate friendship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you. 2 Co. 13:14
