Peace at All Times

God is capable of giving you peace at all times and in all ways. He can calm your heart in whatever way is personal to you. He can help you breathe deep and make your heart beat slower. He can steady your gaze and calm the most frantic spirit. When you feel like you’re running in circles or you’re walking through something particularly painful, turn to him for peace. It’s possible to be in pain and at peace. It’s possible to be broken and at peace. As you ask him for healing, he can give you peace in the waiting.

Peace is not a lack of emotion or denial of circumstances, it’s a lack of anxiety and steady trust in the Lord. In your deepest darkness, God can bring you peace. In your most painful moments, God can bring you peace. Let him hold your heart no matter your circumstances. Let him comfort you and keep you steady especially when everything around you is frantic.

God, thank you for your peace! It’s a gift and I want to walk in it fully, no matter what is happening around me. Teach me how to receive peace from you in all circumstances. Your peace is bigger than my emotions, so help me to turn my eyes to you when things are difficult.
