Colossians 3:15
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.
Does anyone realize that the season of peace, love, and joy is anything but? Thanksgiving starts the rush season. Everyone seems to be out of sorts at the stores. Your mailbox and emails are flooded with sales. Last minute projects need to be finished because you are going to take some time off for the holiday. Time off what is that? You have packed it with last-minute shopping, gift wrapping, food prepping, and party attending activities. It is no wonder how people become so short tempered and snap at each other over parking places and buying the last “one”! How quickly does the month of peace, love, and joy disappear?
I am going to let you in on a secret. Peace, love, and joy are right there. As a matter of fact, they are there all year long. It is you that has to choose to use them. It is you that is in charge of that schedule and your temper. It is you that must choose to let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts. You have been called to peace. Are you going to heed that call?
Lord, I choose to heed the call. Today, I will do my best to let peace rule over all my other emotions. ~amen
