Maintain your peace

Keeping your thoughts on God is the easiest way to maintain peace. Peace is the one thing no one can ever take from you. However when the days of dismay roll in and you focus on the problems and not God you will lose your peace. When Jesus walked on water the disciples became fearful like many of us do when strange things happen in life. When chaos rise, do as Jesus told the disciples “take courage! Don’t be afraid” (Matt. 14:27).  Of course we question God like Peter did. “Lord, if it’s you,” tell me to come to you on the water” (Matt. 14:28.) the most important part of life and Peter’s miraculous water walking; as long as he kept his eyes on Jesus he walked on water. It’s when he took his eyes off and starting doing it his way he begin to sink. 

No matter where you are in life don’t lose your peace. Keep all eyes on God. If you happen to blink too long, know Jesus is right there ready to reach out his hand and catch you!
