Read Colossians 3:15.
We need to trust God to fill us with His peace. Christ peace becomes a referee in our hearts. The heart is the center of conflict because that is where feelings and desires clash - fears and hopes, distrust and trust, jealousy and love. How can we deal with these constant conflicts and live as God wants? We must use the rule of peace. Which choice will promote peace in our souls and in our churches and in our relationships?
To live in peace does not mean that suddenly all differences of opinion are eliminated, but it does require that loving Christians work together despite their differences. Such love is not a feeling but a decision to meet others’ needs. Love leads to peace between individuals.
Personal Worship Option:
Are you at peace with God, with others, with yourself? Let Christ’s peace permeate your life today.
