Election Preparation: A Peace of Me
Manage episode 448522336 series 3029528
In today's politically charged culture, it’s easy to view everything through a red or blue lens. But this clouds our vision, making it harder to see Jesus as he truly is, beyond the confines of political affiliation. It's crucial to remember that while we cast our votes for candidates, we cast our hope on God and our peace rests in Him alone. Even when storms and chaos swirl around us, staying rooted in the truth of who Jesus is allows us to experience lasting inner peace and empowers us to be peacemakers in a divided world.
In times that feel the opposite of peaceful, we draw on the wisdom of the Apostle Peter, who encourages us to humble ourselves and cast all our anxieties on Jesus, trusting him to carry our burdens (1 Peter 5:6-7). Peter also employs us to stay alert and sober-minded, resisting the enemy who seeks to divide and destroy (1 Peter 5:8-9). In these ways, it’s possible for us to be at peace, regardless of what’s happening around us.
