Reflections on peace - p7

Peace in all things - Romans 8:28.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Romans 8:28

You are working all things for our good. Therefore, we can have

peace in all things.

God of all grace, we worship you. Through your Son, we are part of your family, we are those who love you. We praise you that you work everything for our good. Oh Lord, what peace there is in knowing all things are a gift from you for our good.

In this world, we will face suffering, hardship, and pain, but none of that is out of your control. All of it is part of your good plan, oh God, to help us be more delighted by you and better reflect your glory.

Strengthen us to praise you as well as mourn in our suffering. Strengthen our minds to stay securely rooted in this peace we have through you.

You are working all things for our good.

Therefore, we can have

peace in all things.

Amen

P.S. - To all those reading this, thank you. May God's grace strengthen and keep you until He returns in splendour to take us home.

Love and prayers,

Joshua
