> > HEARTLIGHT DAILY VERSE > (formerly Today's Verse) > by Phil Ware > >March 5, 2004 > >Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members >of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. > > --Colossians 3:15 > New International Version > >THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE... > Peace - that illusive state of grace that incorporates all >of life's well-being. Because of Jesus, we have true shalom - >wellness in body, soul, and spirit. His relationships with >others, his victory over sin, death and the grave insures that >we can have peace, too! So as we receive the Spirit of Christ >into our hearts, we can live with our brothers and sisters, no >matter how flawed, in a state of peace. Besides, as Paul >changes metaphors on us, we are the Body of Christ and of >course a body does not want to be at war with itself. So live >in peace with others, and do so with thanksgiving. > > >MY PRAYER... > Blessed Father of all believers, please give me a heart to >love your people. I know as the character of Jesus permeates >my life, I will appreciate the preciousness of each of your >children more and will come to see those difficult family >members as the grit out of which you will fashion my pearl. I >pray you give me grace till my heart matches my commitment to >love all of your children. Through Jesus I pray. Amen. >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written >by Phil Ware of HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: >http://link.crosswalk.com/UM/T.asp?A1.21.19414.1.1286813 >----------- >HEARTLIGHT is a non-profit organization and needs >your help!
