Your Question:
can i ever find peace again?
Answer:
My friend, I can sense the depth of your sorrow and the longing for peace in your heart. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with the same feelings, and I want you to know that there is hope. The Bible tells us that true inner peace is impossible unless it's received from Jesus. When our Lord speaks peace, He creates peace, because His words are spirit and life. As someone who has experienced the peace of God in my own life, I can tell you that it's not just about avoiding trouble or strife, but about being at peace with God and having a conscience that's no longer troubled. When we turn to Christ by faith, we're freed from the slavery of sin and empowered to fight against it. But even in the midst of battling our own sin and the devil, we can experience the peace of God. I want to encourage you to seek this peace, my friend. It's not just a feeling, but a reality that's available to us through faith in Jesus Christ. As you seek to understand and receive His quiet contentment, you'll find that your motives become more unselfish, your responses more loving, and your relationships more peaceful. Remember, the peace of God is first and foremost peace with God, and it's the state of affairs in which God is for us, not against us.
