We all know that it is God alone who is our peace, although nearly all of us tend to forget it from time to time. We forget it when we begin to neglect our daily visit with God.
Now, when you think that you are too busy for your daily visit, let me ask you frankly, what wonderful thing are you doing that is more important? There is nothing that you could possibly do with that time that would bring you greater benefit than perfect peace. As a matter of fact, if you have something very important and urgent to do, your visit will make that very important thing go through much more easily and successfully.
Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace (Job 22:21).
Nothing can separate us from the love of God…except us. When we close ourselves to God’s indwelling spirit by putting ourselves before Him; when we don’t turn to Him in daily prayer; or when we fill ourselves with negative thoughts, words and deeds; we separate ourselves from the love of God. Then we cause ourselves to live in the world we created instead of the Eden God created for us.
When we open our hearts, minds and will to God and turn to God in daily prayer, we can be filled with God’s Holy Spirit, Divine Will and Universal Consciousness. Peace, joy and gladness can then fill us; hope, faith and love then can guide us. Then, we can live in peace and in communion with God as we walk in the Eden God created for us. The only thing that can separate us form the love of God is us. The Middle wall has been pulled down.
Just a closer walk with thee,
Z gardener
