Another verse on peace that spoke to my heart yesterday was from II Pet. 3:14...
"Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in PEACE, without spot, and blameless."
It just "hit" me the two things mentioned here....We are to be diligent to maintain these two things in our Christian lives....
1. Not sinning....and not having anything in our lives that others, even our husbands and children, could "blame" us for....(To me this especially implies really being diligent to work on those areas in our lives that they have seen are not right.)
2.Having a peaceful, restful, quiet heart before God.... (I guess this implies a simple trust in Him although everything around us may be "topsy-turvy".....A simple trust that brings a peaceful heart even though the spiritual battle is raging.)
