Colossians 3:15
“And let, the peace of Christ, act as umpire in your hearts.”
The hardest job of the game is the umpire. Because even though he knows he’ll make some happy and others angry, he still calls the balls and strikes. And he’s trusted to make impartial judgements according to the rules of the game. The peace of Christ is our personal umpire. Because the serenity we receive from having a close, personal, relationship with Jesus helps us decide between balls and strikes when making decisions or resolving conflict. Serving as a reliable indicator, the peace of Christ lets us know if we’re either on the wrong path or acting accordingly to God’s will. This divine umpire ensures that we stay true to our faith. He guides us away from turmoil and toward a life marked by harmony, purpose, and alignment with God’s perfect plan. And when we lay everything at the feet of the Lord, and allow Him to guide us in every aspect of life, we’ll hit it out the park every time!
