PEACE

Tina K. Roach Christianity , , , , , , , , ,

”Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.“ John‬ ‭14‬:‭27‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

It is so tempting to search for our peace by looking at what is going on in our lives. If things are going the way we desire, we feel good and are at peace. BUT, if things are chaotic and we don’t understand why things are happening the way they are happening, it is very easy to let our peace disappear…we are fearful, angry, frustrated, depressed, etc.

This scripture reminds us that the peace that the world gives is not reliable. That peace is based on what is happening in the world. But, the peace that the Lord gives us transcends all that is happening around us!! We can have His peace as we are in the middle of the storms of life. It is that peace that is based on WHO GOD IS and not based on circumstances.

Brothers and Sisters, may we look for our peace in the right place. May we stop looking around us and may we focus on the LORD. HE IS OUR PEACE!!

I pray that “…the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:7

God Has a Plan

Do you know that God has had a plan for your life before you were even born? That plan is still in effect even if you have made some wrong choices in your life. That plan is still in effect even if you have strayed in your relationship with Him.

It’s time to get back on track! Find a quiet place today that you can simply sit in His presence and talk with Him. It’s NOT too late! He loves you so much and He will help you to find His path for your life again. Are you ready to make the journey WITH Him and not on your own? He is ready!

“…I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

MEMORIES…

Tina K. Roach Christianity , , , , , , , , , ,

I am blessed to have some ministry opportunities coming up in the near future. So, it was time to declutter and organize my office space!

I have two handmade prayer shawls hanging from the back of my chair given to me by two dear friends. I have a picture of Jesus entirely made from the words of Scripture. It was given to me years ago by a former student and is so precious!

I have a wooden communion cup brought back from Israel after taking communion with my touring group.

I have a photo card that my host family sent me as I was resting on their couch during ministry times at their church.

I have plaques given to me during my teaching career and on my retirement.

As I sit in my office space, I am so thankful for all of my friends, family, and ministry memories. ❤️ And of course, I am thankful to Almighty God!! All glory and honor to HIM!!

And I am excited and expectant for what the future holds! There is MORE to come!!

HALLELUJAH!!!! 💥💥🔥🔥🔥💥💥
