Those that are looking for peace in external things such as material items or their environment really should reconsider.
Some of us put all our trust in our loved ones and we trust them to bring us peace. NOPE! Won’t work. Although it’s ok at times to lean on each other for support, what happens if they are not around? Peace is priceless when you understand where it comes from and how to obtain it.
The storms of life will come, it might be a personal situation, or weather-related. Peace will bring you through it all. Trouble won’t last always. It will come and go. The peace that passes all understanding is more than you will ever imagine. In my blogs, I mention my heavenly Father a lot, and my reason is that he is so deserving of the honor, and deserve Glory and reverence. I decided a long time ago once I learned how Peace works, that I will not be ashamed to mention nor acknowledge him to make another person comfortable. I’ve lost my parents five months of one another, my mother-in-law, Aug. 10th, 2020 my husband, then recently a brother-in-law. I’ve learned about Peace more than ever. I’m sure somebody may not like this post, you see my earthly Father, aka/POP-SIE could not give me Peace. Our parents taught us about leaning on our Lord and Savior, but they could not give me Peace. As much as I love my husband, my children, they too couldn’t give me peace. God gives us Peace! It’s been tough, but I’ve grown through it all. The Peace is not having no guilt, no regrets. I know to be absent from our bodies is to be with The Lord.
I so miss all my loved ones, true indeed! but thanks to God, he’s given me peace. I can function and not feel I’m going to fall apart. I’ve been taught and prepared as much as possible. Between my parents and my husband, trust me I’ve been drilled on what to do if something should happen to either one of them. Your situation may not change like you would like it to, but with peace and faith, God can change YOU!! In the middle of that situation.
Peace that passes all understanding. Philippians 4:7 nkjv.
Thanks friends!
