Peace, oh where art thou? (and what art thou?)
Often confused with contentment, replaced by fear, and medicated by idolatry; Peace waits in the darkest of times with arms wide.
Peace isn’t a reward or reaction for proper conduct nor proportionate to any input.
Peace seeks to save.
Peace ignores circumstances knowing its sufficient, always.
Peace never sweats.
Peace desires to give itself to you.
Peace is attainable, retainable, and free.
Peace is knowing, not worrying.
Peace is ultimately what we search for, only finding other things to fill the hole in our doubtful hearts.
Peace is right there – just ask; just take.
Peace is Jesus.
I love this truth:
“Every issue you face, has already been assigned an outcome that God wants to generate.” Graham Cooke
