The Art of Peace

Hey family! Can I just say this has been a lonnnggg six months. With the world on it's head and people going straight crazy,Juggling a stressful job, a number of relationships, financial woes, and a host of other demands can sometimes be just too much.It’s no surprise that we find ourselves internally screaming and begging for a moment of peace. I've had to truly lean into my relationship with God.

How has the current climate of the world affected you? What have you been doing to stay encouraged and hopeful?

The Bible offers us a host of verses about peace, a goal that any careful reader of scripture will recognize as one of God’s deepest desires for every one of us and for the world at large.

The message of these Bible verses is pretty simple: slow down, take a deep breath, open yourself to the presence of God, and He will reward you with the peace you seek. Go further, and strive for peace in all your interactions with the world, and your peace will be multiplied, even as you’re fulfilling the wishes of Jesus, who declared, “Blessed are the peacemakers.” Spend some time with these Bible verses about peace—they point the way to the serenity we all need so desperately in these hectic days.

1. “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.”Isaiah 26:3

2.“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”Philippians 4:6-7

The peace of God is just a simple prayer away; approach Him with an open heart and God will grant you peace.

3.“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness.”Jeremiah 29:11

4.“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”John 14:27

The peace we experience from our faith in Jesus surpasses any temporary peace the world can give; it can ease your deepest fears and soothe your troubled heart.

5.“For God is not the author of confusion but of peace."1 Corinthians 14:33
