“And let the peace of the Messiah, to which you were also called in one body, control your hearts. Be thankful.” Colossians 3:15 HCSB
Good morning, Peace-seeker.
What is the reading of your peace-gauge today?
Mother Teresa said, “if we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
Christmas season to-do lists can cause stress and anxiety. Especially for the ones wanting perfection.
Fellowship, Feasting, Giving,
also means:
shopping,
cleaning,
wrapping,
baking,
pressure, pressure, pressure …
DearOne, stop for a while and allow your heart to simply show-up in the presence of the Christ Child. Let Him permeate your thanks for His presence and for the people with whom you belong.
One of my soap-boxes to my people is simply this:
‘Never underestimate the power of showing up.’
Even more dynamic events are set in motion when you choose to show up for the One who calls you to live in peace. Wrap your mind around the perfect Child born to bring peace to mankind.
There you will find direction emerges.
Passion spreads its wings.
Air currents align.
Peace-seekers know how to fly. They don’t wage time counting the minutes escaping their life and blaming their spouse or mom, or dad, or the president, or the joint pain, or the lousy job market. If you’re always angry, always in victim-mode, you’re never blessed. Especially, if you are mad at yourself.
Fear attracts fear.
Love attracts love.
Peace attracts peace.
Seek His presence. He is waiting for you to show up so He can stir your heart and beat jungle drums around it. Revolutions begin when you choose to enter His peace-presence. And, your world will never be the same again.
Wake up.
Show up.
