The
following was shared in October 2015 and continues to be true and on my
mind. May God give us peace! Read on…
Thoughts and prayers of peace are all
over my heart and mind the last few days. Therefore,
I want to share with you some of the things that have been given to me and some
that I am holding tight to.
HYMN: It
Is Well with My Soul
When peace, like a river, attendeth my
way,
when sorrows like sea billows roll;
whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to
say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul,
it is well, it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials
should come,
let this blest assurance control,
that Christ has regarded my helpless
estate,
and hath shed his own blood for my soul.
And, Lord, haste the day when my faith
shall be sight,
the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
the trump shall resound, and the Lord
shall descend,
even so, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul,
it is well, it is well with my soul.
John 14:27 NLT
“I am
leaving you with a gift—peace of
mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
Philippians 4:6-7 NLT
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about
everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace,
which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and
minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
That is the kind of peace that trusting
God brings. When the storms
are big or the troubles seem too high to get over, remember who is in charge,
where our strength comes from and how we will get through. His peace is ours for the taking!
