Overruling Peace

 

“ Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts…”

—Colossians 3:15

We make a conscious choice each day as to what emotion will take control of our lives. We can choose to allow discouragement or depression or unhappiness or fear or doubt to predominate in our thoughts.

Or, we can allow joy and happiness and encouragement and peace to take the reigning place in our lives.

The Apostle Paul urged the Christ-ones gathered at the church in Colosse to make a very deliberate choice. Notice his words recorded in 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.

Let us consciously choose this day to allow the peace of our Savior to rule in our hearts. And let us be thankful for His abiding Presence.
