Jesus Christ 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 *NIV )

Dear Charles,
Now with all that is going on in the World today it
is hard to have any peace of mind. After all, with wars
and rumors of wars, terrorists, and violent weather etc
happening all over the World, it is a bit unsettling to say
the least!

So remember that Jesus told us; "YOU WILL HEAR OF WARS
AND RUMORS OF WARS, BUT SEE TO IT THAT YOU ARE
NOT ALARMED. SUCH THINGS MUST HAPPEN, BUT THE
END IS STILL TO COME. NATION WILL RISE AGAINST
NATION, AND KINGDOM AGAINST KINGDOM. THERE
WILL BE FAMINES AND EARTHQUAKES IN VARIOUS
PLACES." ( MATTHEW 24:6-8 ) So no doubt the Universe is
unfolding as it should be.

Therefore keep your mind focused on Jesus Christ
for He said; "I HAVE TOLD YOU THESE THINGS, SO THAT
IN ME YOU MAY HAVE PEACE. IN THIS WORLD YOU
WILL HAVE TROUBLE. BUT TAKE HEART! I HAVE
OVERCOME THE WORLD." ( JOHN 16:33 )

So Charles, why not start each day with the following
prayer, and even better yet, why not try to live by it as well.
Then; LET THE PEACE OF CHRIST RULE IN YOUR HEARTS,
SINCE AS MEMBERS OF ONE BODY YOU WERE
CALLED TO PEACE, AND BE THANKFUL, (COLOSSIANS 3:15)
and by living this prayer it will help you find true peace and
serenity indeed!

God, grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;
Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful World as it is,
Not as I would have it;
Trusting that You will make all things right
If I surrender to Your will;
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with You
Forever in the next. Amen.
Author, Reinhold Niebuhr

Now Charles, don't you feel more peaceful right now?
I thought so. Have a great day! Amen.

With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen
