PEACE IN TIME OF ANXIETY - Bible quotes on strength



How do we live our life ?
I want to live my life without stress and worries.. I don’t need to be rich and famous . I just want to be happy. Amid the noise of the world today, what is the state of the hearts of friends? We can see the situation now: some run for peace by taking drugs. There is also a silence at home solely, expect tranquility to come. Not infrequently there are also up to climb the mountain and meditate, looking for peace of life. There are workers who commit suicide because they can not stand the pressure of work and constantly scolded superiors. There are also students who end their lives because they are constantly mocked and laughed at by their classmates.
Most  of people in  this  world think that peace can be obtained from the abundant wealth, position or success that we achieve. Yes we can feel  peace from it but peace is not the right peace.

So where can we get right peace?
            No other. The right peace is available only from Jesus Christ, the Savior. It is only in Jesus that we have perfect peace. Only Jesus who comforts, helps, brings our hearts at every moment. Only with Jesus is we calm, safe, and walking in certainty. As Christian apologist C.S. Lewis says, "God can not give us peace and happiness apart from Himself because there is no such thing." The world may promise something fun but it is only temporary and leads to destruction. If you do not feel peace now, you may be away from that source of peace, God.

"Peace Thy peace I give unto thee and what I give not as the world gives you." John 14:27.

The key to making us live in peace is to fellowship with Him. Build intimacy with Him like read the bible  and praying. One thing we need to remember is that peace is given only to those who obey His commands.
Bible quotes on strength
{Philippians 4:6-7}
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
