Read: Philippians 4:7
Sometimes we buy into the idea that peace is only found in the absence of conflict but that isn't necessarily the case!
It may not make sense to us sometimes but if you're in Christ...As you abide in Christ you will be able to experience His peace all the more...even in the midst of troubling or tumultuous times!
His peace is supernatural and can be found and experienced in any moment including the storms of life.
You and I need to seek Him in those good or hard moments because no doubt...He will give you His steadfast peace, love and strength that will help sustain you through that time.
The peace of God is truly beyond understanding...but it is available to us through His Holy Spirit.
May we seek and find His peace in every moment!
I pray that we experience His peace through every season in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
In Christ Alone,

Don't Just Say That You'll Pray...Actually Do It!
Read: 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Colossians 4:2-6
When you say you will pray for someone, do you say it as just a passing phrase or do you actually intend to pray for them?
I think we're all guilty sometimes of saying we'll "pray", (kind of like "how are you doing" but not really wanting the answer sometimes...just a passing phrase) and not following through with prayer and...we need to change this!
The fact is that prayer is a fundamental tool God has gifted us with.
"When you say you will pray for someone, actually pray for them!"We're to be people of prayer and commit to praying for one another.
So, let me encourage and challenge you to be a man or woman of your word and The Word...and make every effort to follow through and pray when you say you will do so.
I pray that God will help us take prayer all the more seriously.
Prayerfully,

A Worthy Walk
Read: Proverbs 10:9 and Ephesians 4:1
As a follower of Christ...one who has been redeemed at a great and ultimate price, (thanks to the saving work of Jesus) you are called to live your life in a worthy manner.
A life marked by traits such as integrity, honesty, love, grace, hospitality, unity, honor, forgiveness and much more.
Your life should also bear the fruit of the Spirit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness and self control with the help of The Holy Spirit.
Your life should not be driven by hate, anger, racism, greed, holding grudges, self-centeredness, lying, stealing, character maligning and more.
In a world that is full of negativity as well as negative and destructive behavior...you and I need to shine His light all the more in the darkness!
Let's pray for each other that we will walk a worthy walk for His kingdom, glory as we are His ambassadors and need to point others to Christ Who is our only true hope!
Watch the brief video above (or via the links below) and then #1 walk a worthy walk and #2 pass this message on!
