Elements of Lasting Peace

·       Meditating on the depth of Jesus’ s, the Father’s and the Holy Spirit’s love for me.

·       Letting go of toxic emotions, understanding that I am also capable of equally insensitive choices that impact others as I have been seemingly impacted

·       Focusing on God’s ability to make a way where there seems to be no way

·       Choosing solitude with God, listening to Him

·       Worshipping the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for their beauty, power, holiness

·       Thanking the Lord for all of times that He has intervened, often at the midnight hour

·       Being wise about my physical limitations, planning a rest day after a heavier day, verbalizing boundaries when others cannot understand my limitations

·       Keeping the Sabbath as a day of focus on hearing from God and resting

·       List the revealed pointers of His imminent coming

·       Remembering that other believers are also “the apple of His eye”.

·       Making positive statements in negative circumstances

·       Speaking peace into situations

·       Resting in His arms, acknowledging my helpless and hopeless estate apart from His intervening care

·       Recalling His promise that He will deliver until the day He arrives!

·       Lifting my eyes from circumstances to the joy of eternity: the pleasure of His touch, the first love relationship of fully being understood and understanding the beloved; the intimacy of never being separated from Him; the joy of knowing that He knows better than I what will please me eternally.

·       Accepting what I cannot change today as having passed through my loving Father’s hand as character building and for my ultimate good.

·       Living today alone; staying in the present in His love and grace

·       Singing, letting music fill the air early in the morning

·       Asking Him to speak to me as I study and read His Word

·       Making my relaxation reading a journey with Him, not theology.

·       Write/journal/do creative writing

·       Balance the day…no work after 8 pm

·       Go to sleep with deep breathing and simple praise

·       Love His appearing !
