Triggers
I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. - John 16:33
The day was exceptionally beautiful. On this self-care Saturday with my closest friends, the soft breeze kissed our faces as we cruised down the highway with the windows down. “Honk!” The car behind us began urging us to move over so it could pass. My friend veered into the next lane, and the driver zooming by shot a mean glare at us. As I felt the mood of the car shift, I hoped we could prevent this moment from ruining our entire day. Emotional triggers that we face daily, like unwarranted road rage of strangers, don’t come with warnings. How do we find hope when hatred and anger are rampant, looming, and unpredictable?
God reminds us that while trouble is unavoidable, we can find peace in knowing that He has overcome every single thing in this world (John 16:33). As believers in Jesus, our peace may be swayed by daily challenges and unforeseen triggers, but we can respond and remain “joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer” through God’s power in us (Romans 12:12).
God has given us a “roadmap” for reclaiming our peace against temporary trials. We remain hopeful, knowing the peace God grants can sustain us through circumstances. It’s embedded in our hearts by the power of the Spirit. —Kimya Loder
Consider the obstacles you face, the unforeseen challenges, and how the Spirit speaks to your heart.
Dear heavenly Father, we know that You have conquered this world. There is nothing we face that is beyond Your control. Grant us peace that allows us to continuously hope in You despite the circumstances we may face.

Celebrate Hope: Looking Back, Stepping Up is an invitation to find where God has been present with us in difficult days long past and where God is present with us now. Certainly God has been our help in ‘ages past,’ and God remains ‘our hope for years to come.’ Celebrate Hope provides us with this needed reminder and offers us the strength to carry on.
