What most of us need in our lives is more peace. Less stress, less worry, and more peace. The solution is rather simple but the execution can be a challenge. Below is the solution, but are we up for the challenge?
- Pray and read…spend time in prayer and in the Word of God (“the Word of God is alive and active and sharper than a two edged sword.” Hebrews 4:12)
- Commit…make receiving peace a priority in your life, not something you only wish for or think about.
- Ask and receive…(“you don’t have because you don’t ask.” James 4:2b)
- Meet the challenge and execute the plan…carve out time each morning to take a deep breath or two to execute number one. Have a conversation with God and read His Word. Perhaps start with Proverbs or the Gospel of John. Ask God for peace and strength.
“The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.” (Psalms 29:11)
