Keeping Your Peace

We will always have challenges through life and struggles that we face day by day but Jesus encourages us that He is always there with us.

One thing is do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace. Often times no matter how hard we try peace eludes us. The war in our minds rages on, and when you allow others to control your emotions ,your peace of mind becomes unstable. That is when we need to walk in the Power of the Holy Spirit , then we can experience the peace that is promised to us.
