FINDING INNER PEACE IN GOD

 

FINDING INNER PEACE IN GOD

We live in a

Crazy mixed-up world

And even when

We TRY and do right

Sometimes we still do wrong

And we wind up feeling

Some guilt

King David knew this-

For he did much wrong

Even though-he was a man

After-GOD'S OWN HEART

“I said,

'I confess my faults

To the Lord,'

And you took away

The guilt of my sin” Psalm 32:5

King David

Wrote many psalms

In which he frequently expresses

His regret

From the sins he committed

How about you/me/us

Are we carrying

A heavy burden of guilt

We can STILL find forgiveness

And healing with God in prayer

ALL we have to do is open up-

Our hearts-and souls-and minds

To God-to EXPERIENCE healing

And forgiveness

FINDING PEACE IN GOD

“The Lord gives strength

To his people

The Lord BLESSES his people

WITH PEACE” Psalm 29:11

“Consider the blameless

Observe the upright

A future AWAITS those

Who seek PEACE” Psalm 37:37

FINDING INNER PEACE

IN GOD

David was not only a man

After God's own heart

But a man after our own heart

For he did wrong

In God's own eyes

And still was able

To FIND PEACE in God

As we can find

INNER PEACE in God

David-had a contrite heart

For he KNEW our God

Was/is a compassionate God

So in this year-

During the YEAR OF MERCY

Let us too-throw ourselves

At/and on THE MERCY OF GOD

For what we have done wrong

In our life

“REMEMBER Lord

Your great mercy

And love

For they are from of old” Psalm 25:6

“Whoever conceals their sins

Does not prosper

But the one who confesses

And renounces them

FINDS MERCY” Proverbs 28:13

“BLESSED are the merciful

For they will ALL be shown MERCY” Matthew 5:7

Dear Lord-in this year of MERCY

HELP US to TRUST

In your forgiveness

And in your heart-filled COMPASSION

So that we can truly FIND INNER PEACE

WITH YOU
