Becoming: Looking For God’s Peace

Dove 1 Today we light the Advent candle of peace. In honor of the day, God brought an early, morning visitor. While drinking coffee in front of a roaring fire, sleepily staring out our picture window at the misty mountain engulfed in clouds, a dove lit on the rail inside our porch terrace. A dove! He flew further in and sat on the swing, just looking at us with his big, round eyes as if to say, “I bring you news of great joy that will be for all people…

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom He is pleased!” Luke 2:10;14.
A.W. Tozer has a good word that links between Love and Peace this week as we look forward expectantly…

The man who has struggled to purify himself and has had nothing but repeated failures, will experience real relief when he stops tinkering with his soul and looks away to the perfect One. While he looks at Christ, the very things he has so long been trying to do will be getting done within him. It will be God working in him to will and to do (The Pursuit of God by A.W. Tozer).

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.Peace Dove
(Philippians 4:7)

Thank you God for sending the Dove of Peace, Jesus Christ, our Lord into the world. Bring You’re eternal peace into our hearts through Your death on the cross, transforming us into Your righteousness. Amen
