We all want peace.

Blessed are those who make peace.

Peacemakers.

There are so many that hide the light that so shine within them.

You are the light that is to shine before all who are around you.

You are the light of the world! Shine!

Matthew 5:14-16 (KJV) – you are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Of all the things God can do, there’s is something He can’t do.

God can not tell a lie.

God’s word is tried by all, yet it is still true.

He will . . . do what He promised.

Numbers 23:19 (KJV) – God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

God shows us immeasurable mercy.

Most of the time, you don’t even recognize it.

Psalm 103: 11 (KJV) – for as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

For most of the world, it is hard to wait for something we want.

Especially if you want it now.

Wait on the Lord. He will give you strength.

We are to look to the interest of others, more than the interest of ourselves.
