If you’ve ever lost something, you know what it’s like. You search far and wide and force your mind to find out when you last had it until you realize you don’t have it anymore.
It is frustrating to lose an object or a loved one; likewise, it is difficult to deal with the loss of peace.
If you’ve lost your peace, you know what I’m talking about. When you look back to find out what happened, you realize it’s gone due to illness, financial problems, marriage problems, depression, or family problems.
Many seek peace at parties, clubs, drugs, and in friends. Perhaps you are one of them… Maybe you are looking for something special in the wrong places and in the wrong way.
The Bible clearly shows us where we can find true peace.
“My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (1 Corinthians 14:27)
The Holy Spirit gives true peace. So stop looking for it in the world and find it in Jesus. Once you receive His Spirit, you will no longer be sad, depressed or frustrated. But instead strong and confident.
Even when problems come and situations happen around you… will have the peace of the Holy Spirit within you, and He is more than enough!
May the God of the Bible bless you,
Bishop Bira Joshua
