I think there are more people searching for peace in their lives than at any other time in my time span. Though I think that there are many that are not aware that it is peace that they really need the absence of it stirs many different reactions. During last week I had opportunity to share with a new neighbor, a portion of my testimony. It was obvious he is displeased with his life at present. I shared with him how Jesus transformed my heart and life and that he is giving me hope for today and tomorrow. His response to me was that he was envious that I have such faith. He commented that he tried to have faith but he needs proof of God's existence. Our conversation continued but I shall not.

One of the incredible things that takes place when we make Jesus our Lord, is not only forgiveness of our past, but peace for our days. The old song says: "Peace peace wonderful peace, coming down from the Father above, sweep over my spirit forever I pray, in fathomless billows of love."

Peace is a result of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Pray for peace for our nation and world. Pray for salvation of souls. Pray for 10-10-10 across the District Church. Pray for peace in our homes. Living examples of peace are the best examples.
