Does the peace of God rule in your heart?
As long as I can remember there have been “peace talks” and “peace agreements” and “peace accords” all over the world. Trouble is…I’ve never gotten the feeling that the world is at peace. Have you noticed that? For as long as I can remember (and that’s a lot longer than it used to be) there have been wars. We’ve been fortunate here in America. We haven’t seen actual war on our soil for a long time. But I figure it’s only a matter of time. And I believe you can attribute the lack of peace to individuals not willing to allow the peace of God to rule in their hearts. Here’s what I mean…
The peace of God isn’t based on arbitrary human emotions. It’s based on Truth and Life. When you understand you had a beginning designed by the Creator of all things, you can begin to understand how important Truth and Life are. And it’s basic. It’s fundamental. It’s simple. Truth exists because God exists. And God is the source of all life. You can know that you know. And knowing can give you a peace you can’t find anywhere else.
Unfortunately, most people don’t give a rip about that peace. They’d rather meander through their days searching for answers based on their preconceived notions…or their flawed learning process (translation: public schooling) and live esoteric, experiential lives. The trouble with that path is…it leads to nowhere. And it often takes dark and treacherous turns.
You can call me “one of those wacky Christians” if you like. I’ve heard it before. But one thing a Christian has that no unbeliever will ever have is: the peace of God. It’s a peace beyond what you’re able to merely ponder and comprehend. And it’s available to anyone who will ask. Do you want it?
Jump on the The FunderFlash and be part of the growing band of believers who wanna show the world that life has Rhyme and Reason because God made us.
Stay tuned,
