Meditations on "Peace"

God designed us to be together with others in life as surely as the parts of our body work together for good health and getting things done.

Irritability and anger are likely reflective of something going on deep inside us. We need to be willing to expose the underlying reason for our wounded heart.

To live in recovery is to live as respectful people, honouring God and those God loves. How does my speech reflect this?

God invites us to the peace and security of living in the truth that He truly does care for us.

God is more interested in our long term peace and stability than in our demands of the moment.

We won’t necessarily understand WHY we are at peace, but we will recognize a calmness and a serenity in a deep place within us that wasn’t there before.

When we are operating with a victim mentality or are trying to be a saviour, we need to allow Jesus to heal us and bring us peace.

We must seek God and give Him control in revealing what needs to go, as well as when, and how.

Planning gives us peace in our hearts knowing that we have reviewed the specifics of how to get to where we are going, and what we need to get there.

The fact is, Jesus came to save us and obeyed the plan of His Father even to death on a cross.

The birth of any baby fills us with awe and wonder but the birth of Jesus was even more amazing because of who Jesus is.

In His mercy, God waits for us to turn from sin and turn our will and life over to His care. He gives us His Holy Spirit to be with us and to live in us.
