We were given peace. But if we have peace, why are we not at rest? Because we reap what we sow. Hatred will lead to hatred, bitterness to bitterness, anger to anger. Sow acceptance, reap acceptance. Sow love, reap love. Sow peace, reap peace.
You will never have peace with yourself or others unless you love unconditionally and accept them, me, or that as a work in progress. Plant peace, harvest peace.
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts… Colossians 3:15
Bianca,
Many people tell you how much of a blessing you are to them. May I join them also? You have blessed me. Thank you for allowing God to lead you, mold you and speak through you. Thank you for allowing God to use you as His vessel
Then can you pray for me? I always need prayer. I may seem like a tough-cookie, but I'm so fragile and scared of opinion. Pray that I know God is my strength…
It is an honor and pleasure. I hope you’re teaching at the retreat this year.
THIS IS A HUGE REVELATION. Lindsey, go write this is your journal or on a notepad with the date. If you KNOW this, then ACT upon it. We forget God-truths all the time… so write it, hold on to it, and believe it. xoxo
I know that much time has passed, but wanted to let you know that I finally revisited this today and wrote it in my journal. Thanks again for your encouragement, Bianca.
And I just realized I repeated lindseygilstrap's comment – but really I didn't – I was typing before her comment was visible – so first I felt guilty – and then – well now I'm glad I'm not alone in this terrible habit. Thank you lindseygilstrap.
I love your comment, craig! I actually am just writing it in my journal now! You expounded on the subject perfectly and added that single word–"doubt" that brings much clarity for me! I appreciate as well that I am not alone in this!
Needed to hear this today
Thank you soooo much
great post! I like the analogy between chacing peace and alice chasing the rabbit..it's so true. Like lindsey and craig i too have issues accepting myself and what I sow in myself. It's so easy to encourage and forgive and all with others, but so hard with myself…thank you for the reminder that Jesus has already given peace to us…Lord help me own it!
I was thinking the other day about what my one word would be for 2011. Several words have been floating around and I just couldn't decide on one word until I read this. See, peace has been one of the words I've been thinking about a lot- maybe because my daughter loves peace signs and has peace decals in her room. Either way, your entry today validated that one word.
I feel as if I could have peace within myself, then I could pass that along to others around me, my husband, my daughters, my family. . .whoever I come in contact with.
So, so true B. Thank you for the great insight and reminder!!
Love, Mom
interesting. i wrote a post last night about having peace as well (with that same scripture in john).
"do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid…"
easier said than done. im thankful though, that even in the midst of the most trying circumstances, we serve a God who loves us and knows our end from the beginning and because of that we can trust in Him.
Thank you for the simple yet profound reminder. It's always good to be reminded of such things when we get caught up in the chaos of this world.
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. 2 Thessalonians 3:16
Good reminders! Just wrote a post on this the other day…"On Christ the solid Rock I stand, why do I feel like I am sinking? If I believe in the power of the Holy Spirit, why don't I operate in it?" Then add your question… If He gives peace, why aren't we at rest? Time to open my tight fists, let go of some things, unlock the chains around my ankles and be set free! It's time!
Thank you for this reminder! I hope your day is full of peace and love.
the peace of Christ passes all understanding…
love the way this is written and presented. awesome!
