Turn away from evil and do what is good; seek peace and pursue it.
Psalm 34:14, HCSB
God is worthy of praise and gratitude, because the further we get from Him the more violent and chaotic humanity becomes. Yet, He has made peace with and for us through Christ.
The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.
Lamentations 3:25-26, ESV
Our ultimate rest is found in Christ. When we dwell on the salvation He offers and the hope of eternity after His return, our minds and souls find rest in the midst of chaos.
“For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,” says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
Isaiah 54:10, ESV
We make our world chaotic, but God has promised to give us the peace paid for by Christ, filling us with the Holy Spirit to carry that peace into the world.
And God keeps His promises.
