Are you letting peace rule in your heart?
“And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.”
- Colossians 3:14-15
It says LET the peace of Christ rule in your hearts. This indicates that Christ wants to fill our hearts with peace so we can be in harmony with our brothers and sisters. But we have to be the ones to LET it in. We must allow peace a place in our hearts over the divisions, jealousy, and bitterness that can so easily crowd out all peace.
Ask God to help you let His peace into your heart. He will most certainly answer that prayer.
This is a beautiful statement. For our wellbeing, we will find a way to reap the promised blessings from Christ if we LET peace in our hearts, and avoid the poison of contempt, envy, and anger.
