How can we have such a dark future and be at peace?
How can we have hope when our difficulties are endless, unresolved?
How will the worries not go away when our insistent prayers are unanswered?
Here is where we are in the world, devoid of any peace, inundated with fear, in insecurity with the pandemic, in panic with the kidnappings, the violence.
We don’t know how to feed our children, where to find work?
And are we recommended to stay in peace?
How do we do that?
How do we get this?
It is complicated.
It is true that according to the world, having peace means being at ease, being healthy, having a stable home, well-being, a job … But the Lord does not want to give us peace. in this way, not in a light and fleeting way.
The peace of Jesus allows us to keep our hearts, to abandon ourselves and to trust the Father.
We are looking for peace elsewhere, in Egypt, it is not of this world, it is in Jesus.
A story in the Bible will grab our attention.
Jesus and his disciples who wanted to go to the other side.
At one point there was a violent storm, everyone on board was terrified, panic had taken hold of hearts, Jesus is there but he is asleep.
How is it normal that the disciples of Jesus have little faith? how did they lack confidence in the presence of Jesus?
How can Jesus be able to sleep when we are in adversity?
The Bible tells us that they woke up Jesus who spoke to the storm, it calmed down, he became silent and peace took over.
Beloved, peace is Jesus.
He is the insurance and the security of our lives.
In Colossians 3:15 – And may the peace of Christ, to which you have been called to be one body, reign in your hearts. And be grateful.
Pray for constant peace to rule your life.
Sometimes we want to know God’s will, we want to please him, we want the peace of the Lord to guide us, to help us decide the final outcome, but we do not ask him.
We are called to be peacemakers, to bring peace even in our families.
Let us learn to say thank you to the Lord for his grace in our lives, let us learn to give him glory for his tranquility and calm which surrounds us.
So let’s keep this exhortation, it encourages us to make peace reign, to make peace dominate whatever the circumstances.
Hello home
Have a good day
