Peace in life

 You can have relief and still not have peace. You can leave home to get away from your parents and find relief but in your heart, you may still not have peace.  You can have an argument with your wife then go and play golf.  You may have relief but not peace.   We might tiptoe around the house in silence for a day.  We have a truce but we don’t have peace. Real peace always begins with spiritual peace.  That is where the world misses it.   They want to go from trouble to peace and bypass the Prince of peace.  They want peace but don’t want the source of peace. Spiritual peace: the peace that God came to give us, is always a result of something else, called righteousness.   The kingdom of God is not meat and drink but righteousness peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Rom 14 .17. We may find ways to cope a little better.  There may be a way to mitigate some of our troubles and they could satisfy temporarily but till righteousness enters the heart of men, there can never be true peace. And unfortunately, this is why there is little you can do for broken families robbed of peace in so many ways, till they are ready to do it Gods way. We all have to lay down sin and our pride and our lives before Jesus and receive his forgiveness and righteousness.

Friend, where ever there is no peace, but friction, anger, wars, hatred or lack of peace in our hearts or home, workplace or nation, it is always a lack of righteousness, but thank God that is something he is willing to give us.
