Key Verse:

“Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.”

— 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Rooted Truth:

God’s peace isn’t just for hard moments—it’s a steady presence meant to carry us every day.

Faith Story:

Amy Carmichael, missionary to India and rescuer of countless children, faced years of physical pain and immobility in her later life. Yet she wrote:

“In acceptance lieth peace.”

She didn’t mean resignation—but trust. Amy learned to rest in God’s sovereignty, even when prayers weren’t answered the way she hoped. Her writings reflect deep spiritual peace, not because her life was easy, but because her heart was anchored in the presence of the Prince of Peace.

Scripture for Deeper Roots:

John 16:33 – “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace…”

Hebrews 4:9–10 – “So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God…”

Psalm 29:11 – “The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.”

Daily Practice:

Take 5–10 quiet minutes today to sit still before God—no phone, no noise. Let your heart settle. Simply breathe, pray, and rest in the truth that God is with you, and His peace is yours.

Daily Prayer:

Lord of Peace, thank You for being near. Help me live from Your rest, not just run to it in crisis. Anchor me in the truth that Your peace is constant, strong, and sufficient—no matter what comes. Amen.

Deep Reflection:

What would change if you truly believed God’s peace is with you always?

Where do you need to stop striving and simply rest?

How has this week grown your understanding of peace?
