When darkness covers the sunshine
When I start to feel anything but fine
When I’m too worried to be still
Be my peace
If I fall down and struggle to stand again
If I fear too much to begin
If I am consumed with being like everyone else
Be my peace
When my life feels out of my control
When the future is too difficult to behold
When every step feels too hard to take
Be my peace
When I lie awake at night
When I’m struggling to find the light
When every day, I cry out to you
Be my peace • Bethany Acker
• When life is overwhelming, God has compassion on us. He sees, He cares, and He invites us to come to Him. How might God be inviting you into His peace today?
Just hours before Jesus went to the cross, He told His disciples, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid†(John 14:27). How is the peace Jesus gives different from the peace that comes from circumstances? (You can also look at John 16:33.)
How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? Psalm 13:2a (NIV)
