For the One

For the One Bargaining for Mental Peace


Listen Later

What tiny trade off’s have you made to get a little peace in your life?

Like giving work just ‘a little more time’ so you could get ahead?

Or ruminating over that problem for another night, so you could ‘finally figure it out’?

But how have those trades been going? Do you feel any more peace? Any more goodness or joy? 

This week’s episode is a call to action to honestly assess the trades we’ve made to ‘get peace.’ The little sacrifices we’ve made, the one degree off from obedience moves, the time we’ve siphoned off all because we’ve bought into the lie that striving, anxiety or control could bring us the outcome we want.

“Be still, and know that I am God,” Psalm 46:10 NIV – one of the most common scriptures we quote, frame and tattoo because we long for that type of stillness. But what if its biblical backstory added so much umph to this passage that it would blow your mind? What if the context brought your bargains and peace to the forefront to deal with?

And there you would see…

That God is truly a deliver.

Provider.

Redeemer.

The God of Heaven and Earth.

The King over all your children and career. The God over your home and church. 

And in that… we find true peace.
