"Let the peace of God rule in your heart" Colossians 3:15
This verse was given to me by the Lord on Tuesday morning before I knew my sister had died. It is amazing how the Lord gives you just what you need-sometimes even before you know you need it.
I woke up at 5:00 am this morning with everything on my mind and a mixture of different feelings-grief, sadness, memories of happier times, etc. I remembered the verse above and realized that the first word in this verse is Let. Let the peace of God rule in your heart.
My heavenly Father is there to provide peace for me but I must be willing to let Him provide it in my heart. He is the only one who can provide that comfort but I make the choice to receive it.
And then as I read my devotion for today, it confirmed what He was teaching me:
"It is the voice of my beloved! He knocks saying, "Open for me, my sister, my love." Song of Solomon 5:2
