Peace of mind By Leona Nwokeji

Is there ever a time that peace is never sought after, longed for and craved? As long as one lives, breaths, thinks and does this thing called life, PEACE will always be a necessity! To some, it’s a verb to some just a lovely word to the BODY of Christ it’s encapsulated the nature of GOD in the “son of man” J-E-S-U-S. Isn’t our truth reassured in Ephesians 2:14-22?

Through the ages of different ERAS, for generations that have lived before us, there’s never been a time in the face of such darkness, spiritual and natural chaos that word called PEACE has been craved by all mankind whether it’s admitted or not. It takes humility, trust, rest and surrender to embrace PEACE.
