These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world. John 16:33 NASB What does this mean to you? Does this give you hope and strength or does it just fall on numb ears? Let me tell you something I was reminded of today. There is no peace that can be found in the world. No person or thing can give you the peace and comfort you seek. There is no friend faithful enough, no family member loving enough that will give you a restful, tranquil, worry-free life. We chase these things like they will fill the gaping holes in our hearts - money, drugs, relationships. These things are fleeting and they will never quench that burning thirst we seek to satisfy. What brought this up for me is that I've been hanging on to relationships and friendships because they have brought me some sort of false comfort. The reality for me is...
This is a wild mess of a world we live in and I'm just trying to navigate it in the best way that I know how. Come along with me for the ride. You never know, it might be that one thing that changes your life forever...
