A RECIPE FOR PEACE
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee;
because he trusteth in thee.”
Isaiah
26:3 KJV
God
has given us a recipe for peace but there are times when we don’t follow the
recipe He has given us and instead of having peace in our heart, we have turmoil,
confusion and sadness. When we are
making something using a recipe in a cookbook if we don’t follow it exactly, it
won’t taste like it should taste.
Helen
Howarth Lemmel wrote one of my favorite hymns. “Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus”. I love these words. “Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His
wonderful face, And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, In the light
of His glory and grace.” Thank God for
our faithful Saviour!
If
we will turn our eyes upon Jesus and keep them there, we won’t have as many
heartaches and problems. We are human
and we will fail one another but Jesus will never fail us. Don’t look to your pastor or Sunday school
teacher and do not look to me because only Jesus will never fail us.
Heavenly
Father, You are a loving compassionate Father and we love You and appreciate
You. Jesus, thank You for not only being
our Saviour, but also for being a Friend Who will never leave us, not even for
a minute. I love You so much, Jesus, and
I long to see You face to face. In
Jesus’ Name, I pray. Amen.
