Unsettled Times Can Bring Peace

Even in todays unsettling times we can still experience peace! You may be wondering how that is even possible, but since the beginning of time our world has dealt with conflicts, wars, pandemics, hardships, natural disasters etc. there has always been a tragedy taking place somewhere in the world. But through it all one thing has been constant and secure, that is God. He strengthens us through his Word and when we solely rely on him we gain His peace.

Colossians 3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

I love how Billy Graham reminds us to commit every situation to God, boy how true that is. If we would just surrender each moment to God we will begin to experience his peace that surpasses all understanding!

Philippians 4:6-7

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

What do you need to commit to God and what are you willing to surrender in order to gain his peace?

If you are in an unsettled season I hope you will find a renewed strength & resolve to keep pushing forward with these verses below.

Philippians 4:13 I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Trust your journey, ask God to guide you and surround you with his peace during this season!

John 14:27

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
