Finding Peace

We all are presented with so many subjects to occupy our thoughts and our lives. It can be overwhelming. For young families it is work, chasing kids, shopping, etc. Then comes the years of school activities. For older people it is traveling or spending time with the grand kids. It is easy to be distracted. However, there comes a point where have to slow down and remember what this is all about. This is about our God and serving Him.

1 Corinthians 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

When we understand this and begin to try to live this way, life begins to work towards a better end.

Matthew 6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

We can be at peace, true peace within, if we will put God first.

Prayer
Father, we praise and exalt You. We love You and want to spend time with You. Please forgive us when we get in too big of a hurry and run off without spending time with You. Help us to walk in Your ways, and to help those around us that we can help. Send Your healing, deliverance, and overwhelming provision. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name. Amen.
