FINDING PEACE IN GOD!

 

FINDING PEACE IN GOD!

 

I KNOW something

About you=about me too

We are all

DESPERATELY searching for PEACE

 

Abd peace=specifically

These last few years=

IS getting more and more

DIFFICULT to find

 

“……..Elkanah used to give……

A double portion to Hannah

Because he loved her…….”                                                                                      1 Samuel 1:4-5

 

Today we read about Hannah

She was barren for years

 

And Hannah became DISTRAUGHT

When her rival Peninnah

Flaunted her FERTILITY

 

In Hannah’s anguish=

NEITHER a double portion

Of what her husband sacrificed

 

Nor his love

Were enough=to console her

She could only

FIND HER PEACE IN GOD!=

She poured out her sole

To him

FINDING PEACE IN GOD!

 

“And Joseph answered Pharaoh

Saying=’it is not in me

God shall give Pharaoh=

An ANSWER OF PEACE’”                                                                                                  Genesis 41:16

 

“Depart from evil

And do good=

SEEK PEACE=and pursue it”                                                                                     Psalm 34:14

 

“And if the house

Is worthy=

LET YOUR PEACE-

Come upon it

 

But if it is not worthy

LET YOUR PEACE=return to you”                                                                                Matthew 10:13

 

God eventually

Did give Hannah a son=

But more than that

 

HE GAVE HER PEACE

In her soul=

And he will be there

For us too

 

He may not

Gove us=WHAT WE WANT

In this life=but he will

HELP US

FIND PEACE IN OUR SOUL

FINDING PEACE IN GOD!

 

“Oh that I knew

Where I might FIND HIM!

 

That I might even

Come to his seat”                                                                                                                 Job 23 :7

 

“Let us therefore

Come boldly unto

The throne of grace

 

That we may obtain mercy

And FIND GRACE

To help

In time of need”                                                                                                                            Hebrews 4:16

 

Dear Lord=like Hannah

In the midst of our own distress

 

Help us=to TURN

To you

AND FIND PEACE=in our souls

FINDING PEACE IN GOD!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our ALWAYS PEACEFUL=LOVING holy Father God!
