Peace

PeaceIt’s Monday, which means word-of-the-week time here at Bouncing Back. Today’s word is:

Peace

We usually think of peace as the absence of war or conflict. But I’m thinking of something a bit more proactive. Jesus said:

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. [John 14:27]

I’m seeking the sort of peace that involves intentional calm and contentment, an attitude that doesn’t depend on external circumstances.

In fact, this inner sense of peace is most essential is when the storm rages around us.

Where do you need to be especially conscious of peace as you begin this week?
