The Peace of GOD is a continual and deep peace, one

which transcends any peace gained from earthly situations.

For earthly peace is subject to ups and downs of our daily lives.

The peace which is God-given is strengthening,

comforting and calming.

It enables us to see the world clearly

and partake of life with serenity.

Without God's peace, we look at life through eyes

filled with hurt, sorrow and guilt.

When we lay our lives before the One Almighty, Loving God,

His life pours over us like a soothing balm

which heals and restores us and

His love fills us until we overflow.

In this way God's love will spread

to the lost and disillusioned of the world,

and through the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ,

the wayward children will be forgiven and welcomed

into God's home and His heart.
