Bible Verse of The Day – 7-17-17

John 14:27 (NKJV) 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Knowing what God wants us to do can sometimes seem complicated. For instance, do we stay on this job, do we move to another state, do we continue in this relationship, what career path do we take, or what church should we attend?

We all face decisions like this in our lives.

Sometimes we just know what to do. And other times it takes a bit to get it right. But it’s not about how long it takes us to get it right. What’s important is that we do ultimately get it RIGHT.

Getting it right has nothing to do with how our financial situation looks. It doesn’t have anything to do with what title we carry, how many people we have in our congregation or our church. It doesn’t matter how many employees we have or how large our business has become.

Getting it RIGHT means “how much peace do we have within ourselves when we make that decision?”.

Do we go to bed at night and sleep sound? Or are we tossing and turning and not sleeping at all because of all the worrying we are doing?

Unfortunately, this is reality. We all face it from time to time.

In each decision we make, having God’s peace should be the goal we aim for.

If we make a decision and have no peace about it, we are probably making the wrong choice.

When we are moving in the right direction, His peace will be with us even during times when it feels like everything else around us is in turmoil.

It’s God’s peace that helps us make the right decisions, helps us to sleep soundly at night and helps us to stop worrying.

Follow His peace.
