Quiet Time TAKEAWAY:
This is what God gave us for Christmas: Eternal Peace.
-God gave his son Jesus in exchange for my salvation; he paid for my escape from damnation.
-He carries everything on his shoulders. He is the ruling King of the universe and yet still knows my heart.
-He is my extraordinary counselor who advises and guides me into my God-given purpose.
-He is my mighty and victorious King of Kings! He is our supreme CEO.
-He never started and will never end. He is the ancient of times past and the forever of the future.
-He is my Abba, my Father. He knows my hearts desires better than I do.
-He is the founder of humanity – and of my soul.
-He is the Prince of Peace who deserves all my attention, respect, love and service.
-He rules all peace in the world and in my mind and spirit.
-His peace is the missing part in my heart; he alone gives me wholeness, contentment, tranquility – and His peace never leaves.
-And all of this is His gift to all of us!
This is what God gave us for Christmas: Eternal Peace.
