Peace in the Chaos

Bible in a Year:

• Psalms 105–106
• 1 Corinthians 3

[Our] help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Psalm 121:2

Something that sounded like firecrackers roused Joanne from sleep. Glass shattered. Wishing she didn’t live alone, she got up to see what was going on. The dark streets were empty and the house seemed to be okay—then she saw the broken mirror.

Investigators found a bullet only a half-inch from the gas line. If it had struck the line, she probably wouldn’t have made it out alive. Later they discovered it was a stray bullet from nearby apartments, but Joanne was afraid to be at home. She prayed for peace, and once the glass was cleaned up, her heart calmed.

Psalm 121 is a reminder for us to look to God in times of trouble. Here, we see that we can have peace and calm because our “help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth” (v. 2). The God who created the universe helps and watches over us (v. 3)—even while we sleep—but He Himself never sleeps (v. 4). He watches over us day and night (v. 6), “both now and forevermore” (v. 8).

No matter what kind of situations we find ourselves in, God sees. And He’s waiting for us to turn to Him. When we do, our circumstances may not always change, but He’s promised His peace in the midst of it all.

Reflect & Pray

When have you experienced God’s peace in a troubling situation? How have you seen Him help others?

Loving God, thank You for Your peace. Please continue to calm my heart in the areas of my life that feel chaotic.

Good evening Pro ((HUGS))
How's the weather on the left coast?

[lightman]

Came through the remnants of Fred pretty much unscathed, no downed trees, 2 inches of rain pulsed out over 48 hours. Some areas 10-12 miles from me had 5 inches last evening and horrific street flooding.

[PROCON]

Hi Beachie, we've cooled off a bit but the wildfire smoke is still choking us, nasty.

'Sup your way?

[luvie]

Howdy, Early Bird! 🦅Hope you're having a good week. I'm on a live chat right now, but wanted to pop in and 👋🏻

[beachn4fun]

Glad to hear Fred didn’t create problems for you.
Fred skirted past us but we did a bit of the wind; some rain.
I saw that North Carolina had some massive flooding.

[beachn4fun]

rain, rain, and more rain. And still hot.

[beachn4fun]

Howdy night owl. ((HUGS))

Thanks for stopping in.

[Laslo Fripp]

Having a cup of coffee just before bedtime seems counterintuitive to me.

☕️😵‍💫

[beachn4fun]

Good evening and welcome Laslo Fripp.

IMO, nothing wrong with a nice cup of coffee in the evening as long as it doesn’t keep you up.

Enjoy
