The Search
Do you have peace of heart and mind? Or are you restless,fearful,often upset,frequently plagued by an inward nagging that won't go away? Do you find yourself trying to achieve peace by occupying your mind with work,sports,entertainment and other diversions? Have you tried to find peace through alcohol and drugs? Have you discovered that none of these things brings real and lasting peace?
The Cause
Do you want to know what is causing this lack of peace? It is sin! That's right - sin,which is breaking God's law and ignoring His desires for you.
Let's take a look at our sins.According to the Bible,"Everyone has sinned and fallen short of God's glorious standard. -Romans 3:23.Does that include you and me? Of course it does,whether we believe it or not.
If you want further proof,the Bible goes on to say that your conscience accuses you,"Their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right." -Romans 2:15.Have your thoughts ever bothered you when you've done something wrong? Don't try to get rid of those thoughts,because that's your conscience speaking.God has given it to you to convince you that you are a sinner,and to bring you to Him.A troubled conscience is proof that sin present.it is God saying,"There is no peace for those who are evil." -Isaiah 57:21.
The Cure
Can we get lasting peace through our own efforts? No.The only way is by admitting our sins to God and believing that He can forgive us,and give us peace through His Son,Jesus Christ:"We have been made right with God because of our faith.Now we have peace with Him because of our Lord Jesus Christ." -Romans 5:1.
Why can't we do what's necessary to get this peace ourselves? The Bible says we have no power.But it also says that He loves us so much that He sent His Son to do it for us:"But here is how God has shown His love for us.While we were still sinners,Christ died for us." -Romans 5:8.
The Way
Do you want lasting peace? It can only come from God.You can have it right now,by puttimg your faith in the Lord Jesus christ and by believing in your heart that He will save you:"Say with your mouth,'Jesus is Lord.'Believe in your heart that God raid him from the dead.Then you will be saved.
Everyone who calls on the name will be saved." -Romans 10:9,13. l give your life a meaning. Click Here To like Us On Facebook and Here To Follow Us On Twitter
