Life and Peace


Rom. 8:1–11

Life and Peace

“To be controlled by human nature results in death; to be controlled by the Spirit results in life and peace.”  Romans 8:6 (Good News)

Isn’t that what it is all about?  Human nature, with all of its mistakes, ugliness and free will leads to death.  It results in the death of relationships, death of progress and promise, and death of hope.

But when we give up control, when we stop struggling against the still, small voices of the Holy Spirit, palpable tranquility and peace results.

Do we ever really have control?


Heavenly father, as we acknowledge the gift of Christ’s death and resurrection, help us to bend to Your will and Your plan for abundance for us.  Amen
