Hey friends, have you ever felt like your life is a whirlwind of chaos and confusion? I think we’ve all been there at some point.

In the midst of all the craziness, it can be really tough to find peace. But I want to share with you a verse that has been a source of comfort and strength for many people, including myself.

It’s Colossians 3:15, and it says, “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.”

I love the imagery of letting the peace of Christ “rule” in our hearts. It’s like allowing peace to be the guiding force in our lives, rather than letting worry and anxiety take the lead.

When we embrace the peace that comes from knowing Christ, it can transform the way we approach every situation.

So, how can we let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts? It starts with making a conscious decision to trust in God’s peace, even when everything around us feels chaotic.

It means turning to prayer and seeking God’s presence in the midst of our struggles. And it also involves choosing gratitude, recognizing the blessings we have and expressing thankfulness for God’s faithfulness.

Let’s take some time today to reflect on Colossians 3:15 and consider how we can invite the peace of Christ to rule in our hearts.

As we do, may we find comfort and strength in knowing that we are called to live in peace and gratitude as members of God’s family.
