Okay people, I’m going to try out something that is in most cases considered wrong; fortunately I’m the one with the pen, so I’m going to do it anyways. I am going to assume everyone reading this has at one time or another sought-after peace of mind. By this I mean that nagging feeling you get during exams, at about 4pm at work, about 7 months into your pregnancy and many other stressful situations. Yup, that feeling to just get this over with and just rest, get a moment of quiet and when you eventually do, it feels like PEACE finally!
Now in most cases this would make for a very good story or movie, however if you and I were to be truthful, this particular dream never comes true. This is because the troubles never end! Think about it, you finally finished from the office, you had a nice bath and meal but before your beauty sleep, your little brother called, your mother just got admitted at the hospital. After that exam, you went home for the holidays but that don’t mean you can just lie about the house and even though you do, your success in the past exams only means even more complex and difficult courses, more lecture hours and what’s more exams again. See the cycle never ends! From kindergarten you start a seemingly endless journey of formal education and just when you think you’re done you are faced with building a career and notwithstanding you have to make money to support yourself then you have to get married, then you have to support your family, then you have to make sure your children grow up right, then you have to make sure they get married and then your grandchildren come along and oops! Where did all the time go?
So if you are waiting for a time when you’ll have peace and I mean the real deal and not just a fleeting moment, you will not get it. However just like brother Paul I would love to show thee a better way:

Phillipians 4: 6-7
6 Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ.

What I’m insinuating is instead of waiting for a moment of tranquility and peace why not have it every minute everywhere you go. I’m talking like peace every day. Yes, it is possible and that scripture up there is the formula for getting it. It may seem too simple but it sure works. This is just one of the many advantages we find in having a relationship with Jesus. He said in Him we’d find three things: righteousness, peace and joy in the Holyghost. So what you waiting for? Go get your peace on!
Welcome to the winning side of life

More of God’s grace!
