PEACE AND
JOY
“Thou
wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he
trusteth in thee. Trust ye in the LORD
for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting
strength:”
Isaiah 26:3,
4 (King James
Version)
I am in the middle
of a very difficult situation and there are times during the day when I get
anxious. However, the times when I start
to get discouraged and anxious I immediately turn my thoughts to Jesus. Our precious Saviour is able to do anything
and I can trust Him. Jesus has proven
Himself to be faithful.

Lemmel wrote one of my favorite hymns “Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus”. I love the words in this beautiful hymn. “His Word shall not fail you-He promised;
Believe Him and all will be well: Then go to a world that is dying, His perfect
salvation to tell!” Are you telling
others about Jesus?
Not only does Jesus
keep us in perfect peace and we can trust Him, He also gives us joy. “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy
presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore”
(Psalm 16:11). I dearly love my family
and friends but I have joy in my heart in the presence of
Jesus.
Jesus, thank You
for giving me joy and peace and for dying on the cross for me. I love You with all of my heart and I
appreciate all You have done for me.
Indeed, You are worthy to be praised and adored. All hail, King Jesus! Worthy is the Lamb of God!
Precious Heavenly
Father, Your love for us overwhelms me.
You love us so much that one day You opened Your heart to us and sent
Your beloved Son to be tortured, cursed and abused and die on a cross of horror
for our sins. Thank You so much for
loving me and for adopting me into Your family.
Amen.
