A Word from PJ


“Pursue peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭12:14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬


It’s so difficult to pursue peace with people who don’t want it. There are people we all know that just want to be at odds with others. Those type of people are impossible to have any kind of peace with in the natural. The beautiful thing about this verse is that it’s instructing the readers to remember the hostility that Jesus endured from sinful people. That hostility wasn’t because of anything He had done. It was because sinful people don’t want peace, they want discord. As Christians, we should pursue peace both in the natural and in the spirit. If peace doesn’t come in the natural then we are to let them go and be at peace with that in the spirit.

Pursue peace and let God do the rest. You can’t change people any way, that’s God’s job.


Love you,

PJ

I need peace in my life, don't care for drama. Isaiah 26:3 is a great reminder of how to remain in peace, your mind must be steadfast and remain on Him. It's not always easy to do but it reminds me what I need to do to obtain it for myself. Thank you Jesus for your peace!
