We had a baptism at our latest event: Operation Roaring River. We have another one happening this coming Monday. Read that again. Two lives being changed. Amazing. Our veterans feeling the Holy Spirit more in their lives. Veterans realizing that they need our Lord and Savior in their lives. Simply amazing. That’s because when the Holy Spirit is present, there’s a peace that you cannot explain. There is a comfort that you cannot explain. That’s because the Holy Spirit is beyond our understanding.
When it comes to peace, isn’t that what we are all seeking. Aren’t we all trying to find that place in our lives where there is peace and calm. A place where we can put aside the disruptions that come with our daily lives. Or maybe some are looking for just a moment of peace. Where nothing else interrupts that feeling at that moment. And that’s what finding peace can do for us.
No matter where we are, there is only one true place to find peace. There’s only one place where we will find the calm that we are searching for. There’s only one place that we will recognize, at that moment, nothing else really matters. That “place” is in God’s grace. The love that we find from Jesus is the only place that we’re going to find true peace. No matter where we are. The river. The state park. The hunting blind. The golf course. Work, home, family events, wherever or whatever it is, the only place we will find true peace is with Jesus. And that’s because he loves you. Always has. Always will.
