CHAOS OR PEACE=YOUR CHOICE




















CHAOS OR PEACE=YOUR CHOICE


Chaos is ONE of the
Companions of DISORDER=it is
NOT one of the GIFTS
That we seek


We SEEK=well at least I do=
Is to LIVE IN PEACE
With all=in our PRAYER today=
It is TIME to take a
Long honest LOOK=at what
DISTURBS our peace


“Beloved:=where jealousy and ambition exist=
There is DISORDER..........” James 3:16


What KIND of chaos EXISTS
In your life today?
What is disturbing your PEACE?


With wisdom=comes
The CHOICE for peace


Jesus says=wisdom comes
From ABOVE=and it IS
Peaceable and gentle


It is FILLED with MERCY
And all sorts
Of GOOD FRUIT


CHOOSING wisdom and peace
Over chaos


“This day=I call the heavens
And the earth
As witnesses=against you


That I have set before you
Life and death
Blessings and curses


Now CHOOSE LIFE
So that you and your children
May live=and you may LOVE
The Lord your God..........” Deuteronomy 30:19-20


“CHOOSE my instruction
Instead of silver
Knowledge=rather than
Choice Gold” Proverbs 8:10


“You did not CHOOSE me
But I CHOSE YOU
And appointed you


So that you might go
And bear fruit--------FRUIT
That will last........” John 15:16


Choose wisdom=CHOOSE PEACE
Live in peace=
NOT chaos


Wars inside of us=and wars
Outside of us
Does NOT come from wisdom


OUR CONFLICTS both within us
And with others
Comes from making WRONG CHOICES


If we lived in harmony
And made our choices with wisdom
WHILE we particularly
Listened to our conflicts


We would CHOOSE PEACE


We would know
What we need
And we would KNOW
How to pray and what
To ask for
IN PRAYER


“Great PEACE
Have those
Who love your law


And nothing
Can make them stumble” Psalm 119:165


“You will keep
In perfect PEACE
Those whose minds
Are steadfast


Because they TRUST
In you” Isaiah 26:3


Dear Lord=Dear Prince
OF PEACE=
May we always
Choose PEACE


And may all wars
And conflict CEASE


In the name of Jesus our LORD=and HIS FATHER of ALL PEACE
