Title: Run to Jesus
Scripture: Isaiah 9:6
Passage: For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Thoughts: If you know Jesus as your personal savior then you can experience peace today. No matter what it is that you’re dealing with--maybe it's a stressful family situation, health concerns, issues going on at work, or even lack of work--you can still find what the Bible tells us is "the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding..."Jesus is the source of all peace-in Isaiah 9:6 He’s called the Prince of Peace!!!!
You need to run, not walk, not crawl or jog, but run to Him in times of crisis & need. Then, and only then, you’ll find the peace you desperately need. There, and only there, you find the peace that will comfort and sustain you.John 14:27 tell us that Jesus said "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid." We all face times of crisis and need, no matter who you are. None of us are exempt. But remember, you have a choice in those times of trouble to try to carry your burden alone………..or to run to the Prince of Peace and allow Him to help you.
Those of you who know us understand that our family has and is experiencing some heavy situations, but I’m not carrying these burdens myself-I can do nothing aside from Him, so I want to encourage you also, like me, to run to Jesus to let Him help you... no matter what it is that you're going through! In time of anxiety or troubles we can find the supernatural peace of knowing, trusting and running to Jesus.
