Moments for Mums: Peace on Earth – Part 1Sample

Peace in the storm

Most of us long for peace. We hate conflict and instability. In the world climate today, many of us are struggling. We feel insecure, as the future is unknown. I have been known to shout, ‘Stop!’ to the radio news because I was feeling overwhelmed with the constant Covid-19 updates. 

Maybe your family is struggling with conflict, pain or a medical crisis. Perhaps your kids are driving you nuts and parenting is becoming overwhelming. How can you find peace in the midst of this storm?

In my own experience, I have found the only sure way to know peace, is to turn to the Prince of Peace Himself. I hear those words in my spirit, ‘He is my peace.’ 

God’s peace doesn’t always immediately calm the storm, but it can bring peace to our souls while we are IN the storm. It is the ‘peace that is beyond understanding.’ 

Question

What storm do you need peace in today?

Prayer

God, help me! I feel overwhelmed sometimes by all that is happening around me that is out of my control. Help me to trust You to bring peace to my soul.
