Jesus Is The Prince Of Peace.

He is ruler who goes before and blazes the trail which leads to reconciliation of nations and tranquil, secure lives for all peoples. JESUS says...Let my peace be in you. Let my quiet ways conquer every warring faction in you. Let this peace permeate your relationships and your prayers for the nations…

At the Name of Jesus, Sarah Hornsby

When winds are raging o’er the upper ocean,
And billows wild contend with angry roar,
`Tis said far down beneath the wild commotion
That peaceful stillness reigneth evermore.

Far, far beneath the noise of tempest dieth,
And silver waves chime over peacefully,
And no rude storm how fierce so e’er it flieth
Disturbs the sabbath of that deeper sea.

So to the heart that knows thy love, O Purest,
There is a temple sacred evermore,
And all the babble of life’s angry voices
Dies in hushed silence at its peaceful door.

Far, far away the roar of passion dieth
And loving thoughts rise calm and peacefully,
And no rude storm how fierce so e’er it flieth
Disturbs the soul that dwells, O Lord, in thee.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Peace like a River.

In the midst of the storms through which we are passing we have peace, deep peace, too deep for any storms of earth to reach. In the world we have tribulation, but in Jesus we have peace. "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you." Clouds overshadow us, but on every cloud we see calm sunshine resting. "O that thou hadst hearkened to my...righteousness as the waves of the sea" (Isa.48:18). Those who hearken to the Lord, whose ears are attuned to His word will find their peace is like a river. It is not stagnant as a lake, nor tumultuous as the sea, but ever in calm motion, ever flowing on in its deep channel like a river. The course may sometimes be through rocks, sometimes through level plains, yet still it moves unhindered on. It may be night or day, it may be storm or calm, but it is there, flowing on till the embrace of the ocean receives it. Such is our peace, let us hold it fast.

Dec`45

I KNOW not the way that’s before me,
The joys or the griefs it may bring;
What clouds are o’erhanging the future,
What flowers by the wayside may spring.
But there’s One who will journey beside me,
Nor in weal nor in woe will forsake;
And this is my solace and comfort,
"He knoweth the way that I take."

Poems of Dawn

While place we seek, or place we shun,
The soul finds happiness in none,
But with our God to lead the way,
`Tis equal joy to go or stay.
