Your Question:
Can I ever find peace and calm again?
Answer:
I can see that you're struggling to find peace and calm in your life. As a pastor, I've seen many people like you who are searching for a sense of inner peace. The Bible tells us that true inner peace is impossible unless it is received from Jesus. When our Lord speaks peace, He creates peace, because the words that He speaks are always spirit and they are life. Have you ever received what Jesus speaks? Has He given you a peace that comes from looking into His face and fully understanding and receiving His quiet contentment? As someone who has walked with the Lord for many years, I can tell you that it's not always easy to find peace. But I've learned that it's possible to achieve inner peace when our schedule aligns with our values. When we prioritize what's truly important, we can find a sense of calm and contentment that transcends the challenges of life. But it's not just about our schedules - it's about looking unto Jesus and receiving peace from Him. If we try to worry our way out of our problems, we destroy His effectiveness in us and we deserve whatever we get. I want to encourage you to seek peace in Jesus, not just as a feeling, but as a reality that can be experienced in the midst of turmoil. As the Bible says, "My peace I give to you" (John 14:27). We are called to be peacemakers, not just peacekeepers. It's the duty of Christians to seek peace with others and within ourselves. I pray that you would find peace and calm in Jesus, and that you would be a source of peace to those around you.
