Jesus Calling - Day 42 - February 11, 2015




“My peace is like a golden Light shining on you continuously.”   One time in our Bible study group we wanted to show the powerful impact of just one candle.  We turned off all of the lights in the room.  It was pitch black!  We then lit just one candle.  It was AMAZING how the one candle just lit up the whole room!   That is what I was reminded of when Sarah Young said, “On darker days, My Peace stands out in sharp contrast to your circumstances.”  

No matter how difficult the road can be or how dark the circumstances look, know that His Peace is always with you.  His Peace is His Hope that good will come from every circumstance.   

Do not give up.  All things are possible with God.  I loved watching the Winter Olympics in 2014 and the inspiring stories behind the athletes.  Many push though even though the circumstances looked bleak.  Remember the story of gymnast, Kerri Strug in 1996 who clenched the gold medal for the U.S. Women’s Gymnastic team on a painful, ankle injury.  They showed that commercial a lot during the Sochi Olympics.  If athletes can push through to win gold medals, shouldn’t we as believer’s in Christ do even more!   We have higher stakes and represent the Eternal God of all the nations!  

Sarah Young reminds us to , “Collaborate with Him in this training.  Do not grow weary and lose heart.”   When circumstances weigh us down and there seems to be no way out, look to him.  He gives us the strength and courage to face the enemy.  He also carries us in the palm of His hand when we are too weak to stand.  He never leaves us or forsakes us.  We have the best personal trainer available! 

Let’s go for the Gold and let His Peace stand out today!
