A peaceful state of mind

‘And let the peace of God rule in your hearts,’ Colossians 3:15 NKJV

God wants you to have a peaceful state of mind. His word says: ‘And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.’ (Colossians 3:15 NKJV). No position or possession is worthwhile if you don’t have peace; money, status, popularity—it’s all meaningless if you lack peace. You simply cannot put a price on the value of peace. Many of us spend our lives trying to climb the ladder of success, but every time we go up one more rung, we lose more of our peace and joy, not to mention time spent with our family. Our lives are consumed with the pressure and stress of trying to hold on to what we gained. But we are never truly successful unless we have peace.

Some of us work several jobs to acquire what the world dangles in front of us, saying, ‘You must have this to be truly happy.’ We get those ‘things’, but we still don’t have any peace. Romans 14:17 tells us, ‘For the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost’ (KJV). The things that money can buy or the security you seek in status will not bring you peace. God wants you to have your needs met abundantly and to be in a position to bless others. But don’t seek to have anything if it will compromise your peace of mind.

SoulFood: Gen 40-41 Luke 10:13-24 Ps 28 Pro 5:3-6
