Today’s Scripture: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Philemon 1:3 ESV
My only peace is from God was my thought as I awoke this morning. It came back to me as I prayed. A quick search and here I see in my reading yesterday I had written an affirmation that said “God gives me grace and peace”. Today I realize the magnificence that my ONLY peace is from God. As I laid there partially awake I sought to sense the Holy Spirit within me and this was what He fed me. My ONLY peace is from God.
Secondly, my ONLY grace is from Jesus Christ. How often have I breezed through what I think are only words of salutation from Paul to find out that they are the basis of all that will follow. All else I will do, all decisions I will make, all joy I will find begins and ends in these simple words.
With God’s peace and the grace of Jesus I am secure and joyful and prepared to go in the direction God desires. I am thankful for the Holy Spirit who lives in me and tells me just what I need to know. What is the Holy Spirit telling you today? Do you know and feel God’s peace? I pray you go in peace and full of the grace from God our Father and Jesus Christ into your world today.
Today’s Prayer: Father God I praise You for Your peace and the grace from Jesus Christ. You are all I need Father. Speak clearly today and guide my steps. Give me the confidence and comfort to know You are all I need. I will go boldly where You lead and love all people I encounter today with Your peace. Amen
