Title: PEACE Post by: catharinep on December 16, 2004, 02:22:41 PM There is a cry for peace, in the world
today, but peace escapes us. There are always wars and rumours of wars, that keeps our hearts in distress. This is the way that the evil one designed it to be. God has foretold us of this in his Word, but it is up to us to learn to understand it. Everywhere there are always cries for peace, in the world signs and demonstrations, are held in protest against the wars continually. To no avail are they heeded to, because that spirit is in the world that is working to destruction. Just when you think that we have achieved peace in a certain area, news breaks out that war has erupted in another area. There will be no world peace, until Jesus comes back for his own. The only peace that we are assured of having, is the peace that the Holy Spirit gives us. The kind of peace that allows us to listen to his voice, and act upon its instruction. The kind of peace that leaves our souls in quiet serenity. The kind of peace that lets us know, that even though the world around us erupts in chaos, we have been given peace, that enables us to live with the peaceful surety of Heavenly protection. |
