Judges 6:24
I can’t believe we’re already in March and close to Easter. Where has the time gone! This new year of 2024 has brought with it anything but peace. Conflict and warfare continue to ravage parts of the world, leaving behind devastation and heartache. Here at home it’s an election year, stirring up political divisions that seem to deepen with each passing day. Not to mention the decline of a society which glorifies all that is wicked, and seeks to remove God instead of turn to Him. No wonder people are feeling overwhelmed and disheartened. But as followers of Jesus, we can find comfort in the unwavering truth that our peace doesn’t depend on our circumstances. Instead our peace comes from the mighty “Yahweh Shalom,” the Lord is peace. The One who provides a peace that rises above all circumstances. A divine serenity that can bring healing and harmony to our hearts, our homes, and our world. For when we surrender to Him, our mighty “Yahweh Shalom” brings His people not only physical deliverance but also inner peace and security amidst every trial and challenge.
