Life and Peace (Apr 10th)

Verse

The mind controlled by the sinful nature is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace.

Romans 8:6 tniv

Thought

What do you want from your handful of days on earth? If you are like me, you want to enjoy life and fill up every moment of it with joy and peace. There is only one way for this to happen: the Holy Spirit must be in you, must lead you, and must control you. All other paths to peace are temporary. Some are simply mirages: tempting deceptions to lure us to what is really death. Life and peace are found by pursuing God, trusting Jesus, and being led and controlled by the Holy Spirit.

Prayer

Father in heaven, hallowed be your matchless name. May your kingdom come and reign over my heart and control my life through the Holy Spirit. In Jesus' name I ask for this grace. Amen.
