Amazing how suddenly our lives can be changed for a season. Life is so precious and yet so uncertain that when those seasons contain troubled waters, only the peace of God can carry us through.
"When Peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll; whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say; It is well, It is well with my soul. Tho Satan should buffet, tho trials should come, let this blest assurance control: That Christ has regarded my helpless estate, and hath shed His own blood for my soul. My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought; my sin, not in part but the whole; is nailed to the cross and I bear it NO More; Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, O my soul. And Lord haste the day when my faith shall be sight, The clouds be rolled back as a scroll; The trumpet shall sound, and The Lord shall descend, Even so, It is well with my soul."
What peace, what glorious peace, is ours in Christ Jesus, our Lord! Knowing that whatever may come our way; storms or high waters, turbulence or distress, God's got this; and peace replaces the unsettled mind as these Heavenly waters flow through our soul and we bear them no more! This divine stream of Jesus' blood flows continually from the throne of God bringing such freedom and deliverance that it makes ya wanna shout, makes ya wanna dance, makes ya wanna tell the world about Jesus; Jesus,who takes the bad brought upon us and turns it around for our good! O What a Savior!
No matter how bad you think things are; no matter the greatness of sin you have committed; no matter how far down in the gutter you feel you are; JESUS is ALL you need- He is your Hope! Jesus waits eagerly for you to invite Him in so He can make His abode and create His new life in you that nothing can ever compare! No need to make changes on your own; He will make whatever changes may be needed; we need only to rest in Him. He is our Hope in life's struggles and He is ALL we will ever need!
He completes those unfilled desires deep down in our soul. He fills the emptiness, the void when everyone else is gone. He takes our old man and creates us into a brand new creation of His own design: filled with His love, His joy, His peace; and a freedom like no one else can do. That's our blessed JESUS, and He's as close as the whisper of His name! He longs to be your God; to walk beside you through this life in both good times and bad; to fill your void with comfort and peace as only He does best; and to guide you through all you encounter day by day!
God has given us a new day filled with fresh mercies and golden opportunities to be all we can be for His kingdom sake. I pray you allow His living waters to flow through you and bring peace as you enjoy a wonderfully blessed day. God loves you and so do I~
