easy does it!

Good morning! My name is Charlotte and I am writing to help us give our first thoughts to the Lord.

This is a wonderful devotional from Joel Osteen. Take a look!

Today's Scripture

“…and His name shall be called…the Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

"Aren’t you glad Jesus is our Prince of Peace?

He rules our hearts with peace. He gives us peace that passes understanding—which means we can have peace when it doesn’t make sense.

We can have peace in the midst of the storm.

We can have peace in the midnight hour.

We can have peace when gas prices go up and the housing market goes down.

We can have constant peace because we are connected to the true source of peace!

Do you need more peace in your life? Call on the Prince of Peace. Give Him your burdens and cares.

The Bible says that His yoke is easy, and His burden is light.

When we are working and living the way God intends—full of peace and joy—we are carrying His “light” burden. We are working with His “easy” yoke.

Don’t carry the worries and stresses of this life! Call on the Prince of Peace, and He’ll take you places that you’ve never dreamed.

His peace will open doors for you that No one can shut! Walk in His peace, and you will walk in the life of victory the Lord has in store for you!"

Lord, help us this day to walk in your peace in every aspect of our lives. Remind us that your burden is light and your yoke is easy and if things get too hard to bear, its because we aren't carrying your burden and your yoke. In Jesus Name. Amen. (it is done)

Have a great day today!

Charlotte
