Your Peace
CD Swanson
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 (NKJV)
In a Christian sense, when I hear the words, "war and peace," what immediately comes to mind, is "God versus the enemy."
Or, I think of the old proverbial adage, "goodness will prevail over evil," both having to do with Christianity and my strong link to God.
In the Bible, a good portion of what can be termed war and peace, occurs throughout the Old Testament, with David going against a giant, and later leading his army against the Philistines.
For years, David was running from King Saul, who sought to kill him.
This was a classic scenario, of war and peace, and the constant battle of goodness versus evil.
God, will always prevail in all circumstances, and He will be there for His children, who walk in obedience and conform to His ways.
Our link to God is secure. His words reverberate against the enemy, always bringing "peace" to our circumstances — irrespective of the Goliath, or King Saul that may be in our world today.
Having God front and center will ultimately secure a life filled with peace; as we stand ready to take on the world, with a vitality in which a non-believer cannot.
We have the distinct advantage and honor of being part of God's army, and able-bodied to handle the odds.
It makes our chances, exceedingly easy, with God in our lives and heart.
A person with no belief system may think they're happy, and perhaps, might convince others.
Personally, I feel there's a major void in their lives, which can be termed an "inner war," therefore providing "no peace."
When you know God, you know peace.
Ostensibly, "no God, no peace."
With God protecting His children, no matter what's going on in the world today, rest assured, the LORD will keep You under His wings of love.
"Dear God, thank You for being our refuge both in turmoil, and peace, in Jesus name, Amen."
