God brings order out of chaos even the chaos we create
ourselves.
If there is conflict
and confusion in your life today and you lack peace, chances are you are looking at the relationship, situation, circumstance,
decision that needs to be made, or the
problem through the eyes of the world.
Doing so brings about disorder, anxiety, anger, impatience
and can cause us to lash out unlovingly at others.
But when you shift your focus through God’s lens His peace
begins to reign in your heart.
God is able to help you respond to others in love, in
forgiveness, and in peace, and thus, maintaining peace with those around you.
It’s your choice – you can live in confusion or chaos, or you can live a life
marked by peace.
Proverbs 16:7
“When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even his
enemies to be at peace with him.”
Isaiah 26:3
“You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on
You, because he trusts in You.”
John 14:27
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the
world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be
afraid.”
John 16:33
“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will
have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
Philippians 4:6-7
“Be anxious for
nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let
your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all
understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
