Lord, We Need Peace

When we have troubles and situations around us that causes stress, hurt, and heartache, we want relief. We need peace. A feeling of peace that warms us like the sunshine. A sense of peace that takes our hurt and heartache away like the power of a wave in the ocean.
When we try to solve and/or fix our troubles and situations, we usually make things worst. We are not capable or able to give us the peace we need that is perfect and everlasting. We can only find this ideal peace in scripture and through our faith in the Lord.

We cast all our care upon Him. 1 Peter 5:7 "Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you."

We pray Lord, give us peace and help us to trust You. Isaiah 26:3,4 "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee."

We thank Him. Philippians 4:6,7 "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

Be still. One of my favorites. Mark 4:39 "And He arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm."

Lord, we need peace...Your peace. Help us to be still and cast our hurt and troubles upon You because You care about us. We love You and thank You. In Jesus name. Amen

Love in Christ,
