PEACE IS AN INSIDE JOB (Psm. 55:6)'I said, oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest'.

The Psalmist wrote, 'Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest'. Have you ever felt that way? Sorry, there's no escape wherever you go-there you are! Peace is 'an inside job'. Oceanographers tell us that even the worst storms rarely extend more than twenty-five feet below the surface. Gales can rip the ocean, causing tidal waves one hundred feet high, but just twenty-five feet below the surface the water is as calm as a pond. The point is this: The only place you'll ever find peace in the midst of life's storms is through an in-depth experience with God. Korean Christians have a saying that emerged from persecution they endured because of their faith in Christ: 'We're just like nails, the harder you hit us, the deeper you drive us, and the deeper you drive us, the more peaceful it becomes!'.

Part of God's purpose in allowing the storms of life to blow is to drive us deeper, deeper into dependence on Him. Someone said, 'God takes life's broken pieces and gives us unbroken peace'! When you focus on the God who never meets a problem He can't solve, you'll experience in-depth peace, and you'll carry that peace with you wherever you go. Others will notice it and seek your advice when they too face trouble.

 

You see, when you know that the God within you reigns above you, you won't succumb to what's around you...UCB
