Let's pursue peace and being peace bringers. Pray into that and use the prayer starters below. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Seek Him and abide in His love and peace today!
Been hearing great stories form Children's Church yesterday as the kids worked on the shoes of peace. PTL for lots of kids and pray for more to be sent our way! After worship I was sitting and playing around with Annabelle and Catalina. Cat asked for some more understanding about the shoes of peace. I explained how she is a peace bringer as she tries to be the big sister and cousin and how she is able to sometimes calm down the others. She agreed that was her. When I asked her about Anna being a peace bringer, she looked at me funny. I asked is Anna a chaos bringer? She laughingly said yes. So, I explained that God wants us to bring peace and how He loves to bring His peace to the chaos.
So are you a peace bringer or a chaos stirrer? Do you follow peace? Dwell in Peace. Strive to bring God's peace to the chaos? Turn off the noise Dwell in peace and ask for His help to bring it. God knows how much the world needs some peace today! Be blessed for bringing peace! Start with sitting at the Prince of Peace's feet and dwelling in His peace then go be like Him today. I'm praying for you!
