Your Question:

Is it possible to find peace in this chaos?

Answer:

As I reflect on the question of finding peace in chaos, I am reminded of my own experiences as a pastor and a husband. My wife Susan and I have been married for 19 years, and we've navigated our share of challenges together. But through it all, we've found peace in our relationship with God and with each other. I believe that true inner peace is impossible unless it is received from Jesus. When we turn to Him in faith, we receive peace with God and a clear conscience.

As a Christian, I've come to understand that peace is not just the absence of conflict, but a state of being that comes from knowing God's presence and love in our lives. It's not something we can manufacture on our own, but rather it's a gift that comes from surrendering to God's sovereignty. I've seen this play out in my own life, particularly in the midst of turmoil, when I've sought to trust in God's goodness and provision. It's not always easy, but it's a peace that comes from looking into His face and fully understanding and receiving His quiet contentment.

In my church, I've seen the power of peace bring people together, even in the midst of disagreement and conflict. We've learned to pray for humility and unity, and to seek to be peacemakers in our community. It's not always easy, but it's a calling that comes from Jesus Himself. As I look back on my own life and ministry, I'm reminded that peace is not just a feeling, but a choice we make every day to trust in God's goodness and love.
