GOD BREAK CHAINS, NOT PROMISES
GOD BREAKS CHAINS, NOT PROMISES. And He broke so many of mine. ✨
But I’m no different from anyone else. His promises are available and true for us all.
And He promises PEACE. No one & nothing can steal that away!
✨ With each chain broken, there is HOPE of so much more than anything faced.
✨ With each chain broken, there is JOY that cannot be erased.
✨ With each chain broken, there is STRENGTH that empowers LOVE to forgive away more.
✨ And with each chain broken, I cling to something I did not understand before:
✨✨ ✨✨PEACE ✨✨✨✨
~ I have to catch myself though when I start to say that something or even someone 😳 is stealing my peace because no one can steal His true peace away. I truly believe it’s about my FOCUS. I am in this world but not of it. So when I focus or turn to fleeting and worldly things for peace, of course I will lose it.
~ But His promises are eternal.
~ So even when I slip, His truths remain the same ... because “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)
~ So when the world is in a state of unrest, I can rest in Him.
~ And when I begin to become restless and unpeaceful myself (like this past week 😬) I pray to STAND IN HIS LOVE and IN HIS PEACE.
~ So I pray to strengthen those prayer muscles and turn each worry into a prayer.
~ And while I used to be chained to the moments and those things that “stole my peace,” I am now hooked on His words that cover and carry me to learn even more.
✨ Because with each chain broken, I have become more and more... addicted to His perfect PEACE. ✨
