Gaining peace

Hello everyone,

I feel like we all are looking for peace on our journey and we just want to be happy and at the same time serve and give hope to the world.

​Peace only comes from God and if we really want peace, we have to stay connected to the vine, nourish our souls and humble ourselves.  We all have trials and tribulations but we can still have peace through the storms.  Uncomfortable situations that we encounter are ways for us to grow in wisdom, understanding and love.  If we never have bad times in our lives, how are we ever going to know where we are within and what we need to do in order to be better people. 

When we're at peace, we're happy but we have to continue to see through Gods lenses not our own and put Him first. That means sacrificing and knowing how to carry ourselves through the good and the bad times.  In other words, keep trusting God, practicing our faith and standing firm even in difficult times. 

The world needs love and hope so let's continue to feed our souls with the word of God so that our light will shine for all to see Jesus in us.  It all starts with us and God sees it all and knows our hearts.  Let's work on ourselves because when we do that, we're showing God's love and helping the Body of Christ.  Also, for the unjust situations that we encounter, let's continue to stand up for what's right and continue to allow God to work through us for His purpose.  Let's do this one day at a time so that we can have peace and joy in all of our days.

Amen and Thank You Lord
