Live In Peace

How are you living your life? God has written that He wants us to live in peace. In Psalms 133 it says, “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” In Colossians 3:15 the word of God reminds us that we are one body in Christ and we should let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts and be thankful. In Galatians 5:22 the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, PEACE..... Let us not forget 1 Peter 5:7 that tells you to cast ALL our anxiety on Him for He cares for you. People of God, our Father wants us to live in peace. He does not want us to be worried about things that He can handle. He does not want us to have strife with one another. When Christ was on earth, He did not have hate in His heart toward anyone. He showed love for everyone, even those who spitefully used and abused Him. Now I know you say this is hard to do , but I say there is nothing impossible when Christ is in the mix. You can’t control anyone’s feelings or the way they act, but you can control YOU with God’s help. If someone has done you wrong or will not listen to you, don’t you get yourself tied up in knots of hate, grief or strife, just give it to Jesus. He said cast ALL your cares on Him for He cares for you. He loves us and because we are His children, He can make our enemies our footstool, that’s in His word too. So you ask Him to give you a clean heart, so you will not sin against Him, and to help you have joy in your heart toward everybody regardless of what they have done or doing to you right now. I guarantee, if you live according to His Word, you will always come out the better and have a genuine peace in your heart for everyone. So whatever it is that has you upset with someone, just ask Him to give you peace about it and work it out on your behalf.
Peace I leave with you says the Lord!

Hebrews 12:14

“Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:”
