Thank you David and FoundInHim,

We live in a world where we need to be reminded that there is indeed peace in Jesus.
Thank you for for the reminder. Have a blessed day.

There is so much truth in the claim that Jesus gives us peace.

I wonder what we give to Jesus? The cross ? Ulcers ? Stress ? An hour a week ? A want list ?

Posted by Carol Swenson (Member # 6929) on :

The world bases its peace on its resources, while God’s peace depends on relationships. To be right with God means to enjoy the peace of God. The world depends on personal ability, but the Christian depends on spiritual adequacy in Christ. In the world, peace is something you hope for or work for; but to the Christian, peace is God’s wonderful gift, received by faith. Unsaved people enjoy peace when there is an absence of trouble; Christians enjoy peace in spite of trials because of the presence of power, the Holy Spirit.

People in the world walk by sight and depend on the externals, but Christians walk by faith and depend on the eternals. The Spirit of God teaches us the Word and guides us (not drags us!) into the truth. He also reminds us of what He has taught us so that we can depend on God’s Word in the difficult times of life. The Spirit uses the Word to give us His peace (John 14:27), His love (John 15:9-10), and His joy (John 15:11).

“And the work of righteousness shall be peace, and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance forever” (Isa. 32:17).

Well, Carol....I snuck in and got me a big hunk of both kinds of peace. I was told that Jesus doesn't want me miserable and he also wanted me to be prosperous (both kinds) so, knowing no better I just took advantage of it.

I like sharing it too.

You won the lottery and you're going to share your new millions with me? [Smile]

Posted by Keeper (Member # 7675) on :

Don't you wish ? So do I .

You know that good Christians don't gamble.

Posted by Carol Swenson (Member # 6929) on :

I do know. So, what is the good news you hinted at?

Posted by Keeper (Member # 7675) on :

I didn't know I hinted at good news.

I can make some up if you like.

Hey, what do you want good news for, no one likes good news according to the news media, we want bad news.

Good news: Senator Speck, or Streak or Scratch or Something is moving to the Democratic Party, that is good news, I am a Republican. (Well, was-not sure what I am now)
