You may desire it and even have experienced it before. It may be something that seems possible but still hard to attain. It's a popular topic, in fact, songs are written about it. Heavenly Peace - quiet, calm, a sense of utmost well-being. Still, heavenly peace is just a wish for most people. Life is hectic and by the time there is a moment to lay your head on the pillow the worries and problems of the day start to swirl. What if, how in the world, what will happen, there is no way and other thoughts, pop up. Sleep, rest and heavenly peace are impossible to acheive.
When life's troubles cause you to lose sleep, make you worry or keep you from rest, you can find a way to have peace. Lift your heart and your worries to Christ. Ask Him to lift your burdens and to send you calm and stillness. Then trust that he will provide. Now sit back and rest. In Christ there is heavenly peace and quietness of mind and spirit. He will still the storms of your mind and your life and exchange them for blissful peace.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27
