Peace In The Lord Jesus

      The author’s words

Dear readers!

First of all, my wife and I  thank to the Lord. Our family overcame the hardship trip through  His guidance, care, support and blessing.

Looking back we met so  thorns, confusion, anxiety. We did walk in tears, in suffering and other problems. God knows the  sufferings  of our family. He’s not standing there to laugh  at us, but He came to wipe off  tears, comforted us. He accompanied us in adversities. He radiated light on our way. He gives us joy and hope. We  trust in Him. He is the living  rock   covering our lives. We rely on the rock in all our life.

We walk step by step according to  His promises in the Bible. Therefore, when our family was in trial, we think immediately of Job. Instead of complaining God  we decided to surrender all my  burden to Him and believe in His Word in Scripture I Peter 5:7 Peter, “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
Not only did we hold His precious promises, but also call on His own phone number,” Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’” (Jeremiah 33:3).

In the crisis of  life, our family  trust in God, walking in his ways, love Him, praise and worship Him. We feel joyful,  peaceful, happy and realize that life  in God means wonderfully. Although  carrying a heavy cross on our shoulders with anxiety, but  we feel  peaceful in God’s care.

Of course, life is not always peaceful as the like a Autumn  lake or beautiful like a dream. Life has got difficulties, sometimes so much    miserably hard positions with up and down. Once crossing the sea for freedom facing with danger.  Another time, my shop was taken fire. And our house was too. But this is only ordinary tests. The biggest challenge in life that we encountered with two disease children.

There are so many worries in life on the earth. We daily encounter obstacles and challenges in all every way. But we have always trust in the Lord Jesus. Although, facing up with storm and stress, we always refuge in the power of God through His promise in Isaiah 40:31, ” but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint”.  Indeed, when we fully trust Compassion Father, we feel very peaceful. Walking with God is soar on wings like eagles; run and not grow weary… When looking back what happened, we feel blessings that God has given us.

I read many books and watch the news every day, I see the life of those who have no God is a hopeless life. They live freely to follow desiring of sensual mind. Finally they end their life in the meaningless things, because they are not  aware of  the Creator.

Today there are countless  rich, brilliant, talented, famous  and successful people  in the world. They have got everything such as houses, cars, money in the banks.  They have got an abundant  physical  life, but their minds are empty and their heart full of  anxiety.  Some people could  not find how to live a meaning life, and  they did choose death. Why? Because they do not believe in God. Despite their mind is brilliant  with plans, programs … but then eventually they will become the failures .
Therefore, it is blessing for anyone to go in ways of God. Those who find peace of mind are enjoying with the living river of God. Every morning we wake up to see  birds singing, flowers blooming under the the sunshine, and all are filled with the love of God. Indeed, the joy and happiness to anyone to walk in Him.

Introduction
         ***
Word of God:

 

“Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me: Tree Lord’s rod and staff comfort me.”
Psalm 23:4

 

 

“Peace in Jesus” is a book  which recounting  up and down of family life and individual author.
The life of everybody is  turning points with sadness and happiness day after day. That looks like Autumn leaves fall down going after time.   However, there are the turning points in life become memorable  memories. They do not fade but live forever. Those were the dangerous voyage, story of  painful illness of two children, difficult life in the USA…

How time flies! My family has lived in the USA for 25 years – ¼ of century.  I now have gray hair with many children. I recall my childhood with stories such as crossing the border, first days in new land… I always thank God for what  happened in my life.  Is this a mystery that God has planned for my family? Yes! This is indeed a mysterious miracle that God has done!

The beginning of my journey until new life has started in  “new world”, we have experienced  peace in Christ Jesus. Peace of mind is a enough  and sufficient condition in Christ Jesus. But how can you have this  peace? Inviting readers  follow me into the story.

Dear readers!

I ran to Jesus to find  source of true peace. Because God is the giver the peace to the soul, as a hymn  “My Peace”

    Written by Keith Routledge

1. My peace I give unto you   It’s a peace that the world cannot give   It’s a peace that the world cannot understand   Peace to know, peace to live,   My peace I give unto you 2. My love I give unto you   It’s a love that the world cannot give   It’s a love that the world cannot understand   Love to know, love to live   My love I give unto you

 

I believe that this hymn, the author took the idea from the Bible verse in John 14:27, “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.” When I heard this hymn, every word of each sentence literally touch my heart. I felt  new power. I look like a dry tree in the desert, someone watered on it.   The tree wasn’t limp, it became green, full of  vitality although living the sweltering desert. How strange! Wonderful! The waterer  is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Word of God says: “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” (Jeremiah 29:13). Discovering happiness and peace in life, we should look for the Lord until meet Him. We must not look for Him carelessly,   but have to look for Him intensely, carefully with all your heart, you surely will meet Him. When you meet Him, you will be relaxed. All the bitterness in life will vanish. All sorrow and anxiety will go away. Our heart will be changed. The Lord  adjust our way and we will receive true peace as His Word promises in the Bible, “ 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.”
Thank God.
