What does one need for peace in a world when social, political, and religious unrest are rampant? close friends? a devoted household? security and safety? Sometimes we believe that in order for us to be completely at peace, our life must fulfill certain expectations. However, perfection and ease will never be a part of life. Thus, how can we navigate hardships while maintaining our sense of calm?
We eventually come to the realization that the things we worked so hard to acquire or accomplish just did not live up to our expectations or fulfill our ambitions.

JESUS PEACE
God made us in order for us to have a connection with Him and to live in this world in genuine, long-lasting serenity. Every man, woman, and kid has a "missing peace" inside of them that stems from our sin, which separates them from God.
Reaching out to Jesus and putting some of your troubles in His hands will help you experience greater peace. When you don't feel strong enough, he can assist with carrying them. Jesus wants you to be joyful, and He is always available to help when things go tough.
BENEFITS OF THE PEACE OF GOD
1. Good health
A lot of people are ill, and others are admitted to hospitals as a result of mental instability. Your body and spirit will feel refreshed by this tranquility. It will prevent heart-related illnesses, elevated blood pressure, stress, sadness, and anxiety.
2. Positivity
Individuals who find peace tend to have an optimistic outlook. They have high expectations. They view individuals and circumstances favorably. They remain composed, believing that nothing can go wrong.
3.It calms our storms
The tempests never stop raging within us. The most terrifying of all storms is the one caused by an unforgiven spirit. But then there is stillness and tranquility. There's a vast calm before the great Peacemaker arrives. The messenger of rest is the heavenly pardon that Christ grants.
4.It cheers us in trial
Our greatest comfort when tragedies overtake us is the serenity of God that resides inside us. With this real lamp lit, the darkness outside does not significantly affect us. Being at peace with God is like having an anchor in a storm, having a sturdy tower to lean on in bad times, having our emotions soothed, and having our tears dried.
PRINCE OF PEACE
The Peaceful Prince
Did you know that Isaiah 9:6 refers to Jesus as the Prince of Peace? The real source of peace for us is Jesus.
"He bought our peace, but He suffered for our sins, He was bruised for our wrongdoings; He bore the chastisement for our peace, and we are healed by His stripes." Isaiah 53:5.
Peace is a gift; it is neither a sensation or an emotion. Our Prince of Peace is Jesus.
Dear God,
We are grateful that you gave us the gift of peace by paying the highest price. We now understand that you are the giver of peace. Calm is a gift; it is neither a sensation or an emotion. Father, there are always tests to our peace.I hope you find inner serenity today.
May you have faith in your highest power to guide you to the place that is right for you.
May you never lose sight of the boundless opportunities that come from having trust.
I hope you make the most of the gifts you've been given and spread the love you've received.
May you be happy in the knowledge that you are God's child.Give your spirit the freedom to sing and dance, and let this presence become ingrained in your bones.Every single one of you may rely on it.
Amen.
