Oswald Chambers: Peace - Life in the Spirit

DAY 20 OF 30

Reflected peace is the greatest evidence that I am right with God, for I am at liberty to turn my mind to Him. If I am not right with God I can never turn my mind anywhere but on myself. Are you painfully disturbed just now, distracted by the waves and billows of God’s providential permission? Having turned over, as it were, the boulders of your belief, do you still find no well of peace or joy or comfort—all is barren? Then look up and receive the undisturbedness of our Lord Jesus Christ. Above and in the facts of war and pain and difficulties He reigns, peaceful. Before the Spirit of God can bring peace of mind He has to clear out the rubbish, and before He can do that He has to give us an idea of what rubbish there is. Reflection Questions: What do selfish thoughts tell me about my concept of peace? What anxious thoughts do I need to clear from my mind before I can have peace with God and others?
