“And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.”  Colossians 3:15  NLT

Famous can be the master of chill. When he gets to sit on the deck or on the hillside of our backyard, he has a very regal look of satisfaction. For a little while he is king of all he surveys. No bird or varmint escapes his notice. It makes me feel quite satisfied knowing he is happy.

If we are called to live in peace, I believe it is helpful to find peace in our own lives before we can invite others to share it with us. The opposite is convincing others we live in turmoil and have little hope of accomplishing anything together.

Give thanks with a peaceful heart.
