PEACE AMID THE CHAOS (November 03, 2023)
Manage episode 381803727 series 2380614
How do you find a quiet heart?
You won’t find it in a deep evergreen forest, though walking in the fragrant woods may give you time to think.
You won’t find it beside a thundering waterfall, though the welcome sound may block the din of autos, trains, and planes.
You won’t even find that quiet heart in the sanctuary of a silent church, though everything around you points you to God’s presence.
Changing our location doesn’t bring the peace we crave. A quiet heart is the gift we receive through the grace of a loving God. “Since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us” (Rom 5:1).
“I have loved you with an everlasting love,” the Father says. “I have drawn you with unfailing kindness” (Jer 31:3). “This is how God loved the world: He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
Receive the peace you were made for. Believe in the God who has always believed in you.
And stay in grace. -Bill Knott
