Oswald Chambers: Peace - Life in the Spiritનમૂનો

When we are born again from above, quickened and raised up by God, we find it is possible to consider the lilies because we have not only the peace of God, but the very peace that characterized Jesus Christ. We are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. The old way of doing things, the old fuss and fume are dead, and we are a new creation in Christ Jesus. In that new creation is manifested the very peace that was manifested in Jesus Christ. When God raises us up into the heavenly places, He imparts to us the very purity of Jesus Christ. That is what the sanctified life means—the undisturbable range of His peace, the unshakeable, indefatigable power of His strength, and the unfathomable, crystalline purity of His holiness. Reflection Question: Do I fuss and fume over every inconvenience or do I consider the possibility that they were put there to slow me down and cause me to see something important that I would have missed?
