In the news, we see and hear scores of people crying out for peace. In the name of peace, they are taking over college campuses, stopping traffic, and condemning everyone on the other side of the political spectrum. At the same time, families are being destroyed and angry people dominate social media and oftentimes the news. How can we cry out for national peace, when we don’t have any idea how to obtain peace on an individual personal level?
Isaiah 26:3 says, “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.” God promises to give us peace, perfect peace, when we keep our minds on him, trusting in Him fully. Then we can be an instrument of peace to our hurting world.
