Your Question:

Can I ever find peace and calm again?

Answer:

I can relate to the struggle you're facing. As a pastor, I've seen many people come seeking peace, only to find themselves still troubled. But I've also seen the power of Jesus' peace in people's lives. As the Bible says, "When our Lord speaks peace, He creates peace" (John 6:63). I've experienced this myself, and I've seen it in the lives of those I've ministered to.

It's clear that you're struggling with feelings of emptiness and hopelessness. I've been there too, and I know it's a tough place to be. But I want to encourage you that there is hope. The Bible says, "Peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid" (John 14:27). This is a promise from Jesus Himself, and it's one that I've found to be true in my own life.

As someone who's walked through difficult times, I want to encourage you to look to Jesus for peace. Don't try to worry your way out of your problems or rely on your own strength to find peace. Instead, seek to align your schedule with your values, as Stephen Covey said, and look to Jesus for guidance and peace. Remember, "peace is impossible unless it is received from Jesus" (John 14:27). I pray that you'll find the peace you're seeking in Him.
