Where to find peace

Yesterday's post was about storms, which we all have, we have all had, we will all have again. Yet, in our storms, we can rest assured that our SAVIOR is unsinkable. No matter how the tempest may rage, if we keep our eyes on the Captain, we will arrive safely to our destination.

Today, I would like to talk about peace, and where to find it. Peace seems to be a difficult thing to find, especially lately. There seems to always be something going on, some busyness to attend to, some upset ranter on television, some irate person you come in contact with that, if you are not careful, will steal your peace.

Today's word is John 16:33, ESV, which has been quoted many times but reminds us of where to find our peace: "I have said these thing to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."

We can search for peace and never find it, if we aren't searching where it can be found. We can try all the different fads or all the different whatevers but we will not find true peace outside of the peace bestowed upon us by our SAVIOR. JESUS is the Prince of Peace; peace, true peace, only comes from the PRINCE.

When the storms of life are raging, and they will. It is comforting to know that my LORD and SAVIOR has been there, done that. There is nothing that could befall me that He is not aware of. There is nothing that could arise that would catch Him by surprise. There is no storm that cannot be calmed by Him simply saying, "Peace be still." A relationship with JESUS CHRIST is where to find peace.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
