Friday’s Food For Thought

Perfect Peace

“You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.” Isaiah 26:3

Peace is something that few people talk about in this day and age. That is most likely due to the fact that few people know what it means to have peace, not even considering perfect peace. Peace, perfect peace, isn’t simply “peace and quiet”. It isn’t having the music turned down low and “meditating.” Perfect peace is not simply an atmosphere. Perfect peace is a mindset.

Perfect peace is birthed out of a unique focus and trust in God. It is also birthed out of understanding. It happens when we begin to understand that no matter what life’s present circumstance, God has a plan for us and has everything under control. Consequently, all we have to do is trust and believe upon him. It isn’t an easy road to walk down, but it’s a road worth walking down. Perfect peace is not only peace that comes from God, it is indeed the peace of God.

When you reach this point, what goes on in the world doesn’t matter. Life at this point is simply about you and God. That’s perfect peace.

State of the Church

On Sunday, June 6th I will share our semi-annual State of the Church Address at the EPIC Experience.  Here’s an excerpt from the upcoming message:

We have several big challenges in front of us for the remainder of 2010 but an even bigger God to see us through.  All of these challenges become opportunities for God to come through for us again.  We can choose to focus on the overwhelming needs or we can fix our eyes on the One who meets our needs according to His glorious riches.

Fear or Faith?  Let’s choose to see with eyes of faith!

Obstacle or Opportunity?  Let’s consider this an opportunity for God to provide!

Impossible or Possible?  Let’s believe God that all things are possible!

Mark your calendars now for Sunday, June 6th @ 10am.  This will be a pivotal day for the EPIC Church family.  Don’t miss the EPIC State of the Church Address!
