Peace

 Believers experience peace differently than the world. We recognise peace comes to us in the midst of trails. God unexplainable peace is made known to us in the seasons we need it most.

 

Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.    Philippians 4.7

 

As you enter this week of Advent, may you find peace in the promise that is to come. The narrative leading toward the birth of Jesus continues this week with the lineage of Abraham. His story ushers in the patriarchs and the time of the Judges. Hard things are ahead, but through it all, God is their source of peace.

 

Lord God, You are the covenant-keeping God. The promises You give to Your people bring peace to me today. May I see them clearly and rest there in the challenges of life. It is in the hard times that I know You are with me and know Your peace. In Jesus’s name, Amen
