Life can be hard sometimes, can’t it? One of the most difficult things is to remain at peace when things aren’t going the way you’d like them to. How do you remain at peace when it seems like nothing is going the way you’d like it to?
Let’s look at today’s Bible verse:
For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, – Ephesians 2:14 (NIV)
We can see from this verse, that Jesus is our peace. That means that when we don’t feel peaceful, we can go and get the peace we need from Jesus.
Things can be going wrong all around you, and yet you can be at peace. Why? Because you know that your peace doesn’t come from the world but from Jesus.
When you’re not at peace, you can remind yourself of scriptures that bring peace to your heart. You can listen to worship music and spend some time praising God. Doing these things will help you stay in a place of peace.
Remind yourself today that Jesus understands and knows what you’re going through. If you look to Him, through prayer and His word, you’ll find that you too can be at peace even if things aren’t going the way you’d like them. to.
