Please give me peace, hope and joy
God has already given every believer peace, hope, and joy. Jesus left us with His peace, He gave it to us. We have been given the fruits of the Spirit, such as love, joy, and peace. Our hope is in the Word of God. Faith brings the Word of God to life. And if we trust in the Word we shall see the Word happen in our life.
We need to keep our focus on Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit. They will mend the heart and fill it with their love and care.
This time of year can be the pits, but it can also be a joyous time of year too. Our decision.
The best way to change your circumstances around you and to have the people around you do some changing is found in this verse of the Bible, the Word.
Proverbs 4:20-23 (ASV)
20 My son, attend to my words; Incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; Keep them in the midst of thy heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them, And health to all their flesh.
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.
You, your flesh, your family will all be affected if "you" will make Jesus and God your main focus in life. Read the Word daily, especially the New Testament. Read it, memorize passages, speak passages aloud, mediate on the Words you have read. Sing praise songs, worship the Lord, And love others around you. Love them like Jesus does and says to do. When you do these things the people around you, your family, shall change. Keep your focus on Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit.
In the name of Jesus, I bless you with the life of God. God loves you very very much. He is good, all the time.
