from the New Living Translation
"For the LORD is God,
and he created the heavens and earth
and put everything in place.
He made the world to be lived in,
not to be a place of empty chaos.
'I am the LORD,' he says,
'and there is no other.'"
Isaiah 45:18
"When God made this world, he intended it to be lived in, enjoyed. He is not a God of chaos, either on a macro or micro scale. Our lives are meant to be lived fully; he does not want emptiness or chaos in our lives any more than he wants it in the world he created. Let him fill any emptiness in your life. Let him order the chaos. He wants to!"
—Diane Eble, author of Abundant Gifts: A Daybook of Grace-Filled Devotions
Though our world may be in chaos, we who are in Christ enjoy the confidence of serving a God of peace. He created the universe, the world, and all that is in it. I 'think' He can handle the chaos in our lives. Don't let empty chaos run your life, trust in God to put everything in it's place. Turn your eyes upon Jesus and let the peace of God rule in your life today!
"Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all." 2 Thessalonians 3:16
In His Love, Cathy
