God wants to bring us life, to the point where we have no way to imagine the extent of good He wants to bring to us. If we are moved by earthly circumstances, we will not have abiding peace. When you learn to live in peace, you will never revert to panic. If there are no works to accompany intentions, it reveals that there was never any intention of putting new information into practice. People tend to live life by “sheer will” relying on human strength and miss the power of the Holy Spirit.
