We, as humans can tend to find peace in all the wrong places. We place our peace on things more what can be seen and is temporary rather then God who is unseen but eternal and full of love for us. We place our peace on even material processions and how they make us feel better, more secure about ourselves. We place our peace on friends and what they can offer to us even though we know they are just as human.
My question for us is how fully do we trust God? What if today we simply lost everything- our homes, our cars, our family and pets- everything we have lived for, gone in an instant. Would we still be able to trust to God and find peace through Him? Will we stop trusting God and try to fill the hole in our with the things of this world?
Peace doesn't come in money. It doesn't come in cars. Peace only comes by faith a God who loves us and who's ways are higher then our ways. It is ok to enjoy what we are blessed with. God wants us to enjoy life and appreciate everything provides for us. We just need to remember who it is who it is who provided what we have. That is ultimate peace. We can look back in the trials and see a God worked.
We can have peace by remembering how far we've come and what God got us through. We can see His fingerprints intertwined in our past and know He is there. When we realize we didn't do it by ourselves but we had a God carry us through there is a simple special peace to that. We didn't do it alone. We don't have to depend on ourselves. We need only really on God. Are you ready to live in ultimate peace? The choice is up to you.
