“TASTE AND SEE THAT GOD IS GOOD.The more intimately you experience The LORD, the more convinced you become of HIS goodness. GOD is the Living One who sees you and longs to participate in your life. GOD is training you to find HIM in each moment and to be a channel of The LORD’S loving Presence. Sometimes GOD’S blessings come to you in mysterious ways: through pain and trouble. At such times you can know The LORD’S goodness only through your trust in GOD. Understanding will fail you, but trust will keep you close to GOD. Thank The LORD for the gift of HIS Peace, a gift of such immense proportions that you cannot fathom its depth or breadth. When JESUS CHRIST appeared to HIS disciples after the resurrection, it was Peace that The LORD communicated first of all. CHRIST knew this was their deepest need: to calm their fears and clear their minds. GOD also speaks Peace to you, for HE knows your anxious thoughts. Listen to GOD! Tune out other voices, so that you can hear The LORD more clearly. GOD designed you to dwell in Peace all day, every day. Draw near to GOD; receive HIS Peace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. PSALM 34 : 8
So she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, You are a God of seeing, for she said, Truly here I have seen him who looks after me. Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; it lies between Kadesh and Bered. GENESIS 16 : 13 – 14 (ESV)
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” JOHN 20 : 19
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. COLOSSIANS 3 : 15
Prayer: Jesus thank you for reminding me that peace is only found in you. I won’t find it anywhere else. Fill me with your peace today as I spend time with you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
