Casting Away Concern to Solidify Peace


John 14:27 KJV
King James Version

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth , give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid...

*The peace offered by the world is often temporary, and can come with strings attached be it a financial quick fix that often leads to more debt or an inconclusive end; a connection that is short lived and unmanageable; or unfulfillment leaving u with dissatisfaction and in search for more. God wants to remind u that He is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33); therefore, when He provides peace it is everlasting regardless to our situation or circumstance as long as u turn to Him. He is waiting for us to cast our cares upon Him, which will empower you with the ability to not be moved by anything we go through (Psalm 55:22). That fear or anxiety that we feel, whether we voice it or not, provides leeway for the devil to creep in and attach himself to our situation. Let's work on standing strong, being truly accepting to the promises of Christ, and holding on to those promises to get out of cycles and be an example for others.
