Everyone wants peace-world leaders, church leaders, parents, children. People strive for peace through every conceivable means. Most people seek peace in the wrong way. They seek peace through Drugs/alcohol, sex, over working and other worldly methods. Christ made peace by His death on the cross. All who accept Him by repentance and faith may receive His peace. Christ died once for our sins. An innocent person died for those who are guilty. Christ did this to bring you to God.
The peace of God is available to all people, young and old, rich and poor. No one need be left out. Anyone who hears the Gospel, accepts and believes it, may receive the peace of God. The peace the world gives isn’t real or lasting. It fails to satisfy the longing of the soul. This peace is not earned; it cannot be purchased. This peace is given to those put their faith is Jesus Christ. To have true peace we must have Christ, for He is our peace. If we are to have His peace, He must have us. We must give all to Him-our hopes, our plans, our will, our future.
