When you pursue peace, you do everything you can to get it. You run hard and fast away from the things that don’t bring it and toward the things that do. Unlike a childhood game, peace isn’t something that’s difficult to catch. You don’t have to run in circles, or wait for your turn to be “it,” or even look for it as it’s hiding. 

To pursue peace, all you have to do is look to the One who gives it: God. He will not only work in you to bring you peace, but He’ll give you the strength to keep pursuing it in every area of your life. 

To remind yourself to pursue peace this week, try memorizing this verse or writing it somewhere you’ll see it often.
