About inner peace…
Isaiah 32:18 My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in
undisturbed places of rest. 19 Though hail flattens the forest and the city is leveled
completely, 20 how blessed you will be, sowing your seed by every stream, and letting your
cattle and donkeys range free. (NIV)
Within us and around us there are often times of war. We have arguments, disagreements,
and tension in our life. There are conflicts in our life and in our world. Some of these
conflicts may never be resolved during our lifetime. We may have daily doubts and worries
that take away our hope and joy. However, with God there is always a way to find inner
peace. With God, we can rest in His love and care, because no one loves us and cares about
us like God does. Christ came to tell us that God loves us. Christ came to earth to show
us, by His sacrifice, that God loves us. When we are assailed from every side with doubts,
worries, fear, and turmoil, we can find inner peace when we truly place our heart and life
in the hands of God. God is our resource in times of trouble. God is our resource when we
have no where else to turn.
