“The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace” (Psalm 29:11).

Do we ever stop longing for peace in our world, our choices, or in our relationships? The Lord’s peace is a supernatural peace that settles the war in our minds. It’s a road sign for our hearts. Additionally, peace allows us to travel down life’s highway and not worry about a deadly crash or getting lost. God is in control, making sure we journey onward.

Embracing the love of Christ helps us to walk forward in our relationships with Him and others. I know firsthand how Jesus exchanged my heartache over losing my husband for peace that only He could deliver. Peace of mind is something we have to pursue daily. A relationship with the Prince of Peace, Jesus, allows us to walk in peace.

When a financial opportunity arises, I base my decision on having a peaceful answer. It’s called supernatural peace. Back in my 20s, I made financial decisions without praying. Therefore, I felt unsure. Something seemed wrong, but I pursued it anyway. For example, I was determined to buy a condo before I sold my house. I didn’t have peace signing the contract but thought I could sell my existing home before the deadline. After 30 days, I argued, pretended to cry, and danced a jig to get my earnest money back, but unfortunately, I lost the retainer fee.

I’ve grown a wee bit wiser over the years. The key to having daily peace is to seek Jesus like the wise men. No matter what comes our way, if we seek Him, we can walk in peace.

Praise God for the birth of Christ who gives us supernatural peace that is not dependent on our strength or the situations around us.
