Just Checking In

 Hello hello hello everyone,

    It's been awhile so I just wanted to quickly check in with you all. The world's been awfully crazy lately, hasn't it? From college campus protests about Israel and Palestine to this ongoing election year, there are constantly moments in which our stress and anxiety levels can elevate to a much higher than normal degree, but there is one thing that we can never forget. Jesus can give us the peace we so desperately crave. I know that it can be hard to be at peace during these scary and trying times, but, as long as we open our hearts to Him, being at peace is not impossible.

In the moments when the world begins to scare or worry us, please keep in mind the following verses:

KJV verses list... (PLEASE DO NOT OVERLOOK)

John 14:27 -- "Peace I [Jesus] leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

Psalm 23 -- "{1} The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. {2} He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. {3} He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. {4} Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. {5} Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. {6} Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever."

2 Timothy 1:7 -- "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

Psalm 56:3 -- "What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee [God]." 

    Although these are far from being the only verses pertaining to peace and fear, these are a nice set to memorize for these trying times. So, I hope these verses do in fact help you all and bring you peace of mind. Just so you guys know I do plan on posting again soon.

Bye for now,

Eden
