Can We Really Have Peace In A Complicated World?

By
Education & Training with Although I'm retired, I love sharing my knowledge and learning from other real estate industry professionals.


"When we put our problems in God's hands, he puts His peace in our hearts."


This seems to be the month that pastors, appropriately, choose to give sermons on the subjects of Hope, Joy, Peace and Love.


Last week I was in Spokane and attended church at Mirabeau Chapel. The subject was Peace.  My favorite quote from that sermon:
"Peace is not the absence of crisis.  
Peace is the presence of Christ"

Today, I attended the service at Sage Hills Church in Wenatchee.  Again, the subject was Peace.  My favorite line from that sermon:
"Peace is defined as being present in the presence of Jesus."

Life is going to be filled with twists and turns... some crisis and a lot of inconvenience.  Yet, in spite of it all, we can be at peace in our life by keeping Christ at the center of how we act, react and navigate through each day.

May peace be with you throughout this year and the new year to come.

I agree. With Christ at the center, all things are possible. We can be at peace knowing He is in control.

Good morning Donna Foerster .  I can't tell you how many times in life it was comforting to know He was there when I had NO control over what was happening.  Life is better with Faith.  Thanks for reading.

Good morning Patricia Kennedy .  I am fine with ALL faiths as long as they don't teach hurting innocent people.  Faith is a wonderful thing when we have NO control over what is happening... and that's pretty often.
