December Word of The Month
December's word of the month is Peace.
When life is going well, it may seem like there is no need for Christ. When the ship is sailing fine, the sailors go about not considering their state of peace. Of course they feel at peace with the smooth sailing. It not until the storm hits that chaos breaks loose. The storms in our lives produce similar affects – they show our true self. Christ promises that these storms will come if we decide to follow him. However, he knows that a life with him will contain both true peace and hardship (John 15:19).
Despite the persecution of the world, Christ provides peace with the promise of his love. Paul declares this truth to the Romans that “those who love God all things work together for good, for those called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). How could it be that all things work together for a believer’s good? Whether good or bad, God orchestrates these events for our immediate and eternal benefit. Read More.
