Oswald Chambers: Peace - Life in the SpiritSample

It is a great thing to have our spiritual sight tested by the Celestial Optician, to watch the way in which he rectifies and readjusts our sight. There is one unmistakable witness that Jesus promised us, and that is the gift of His peace. No matter how complicated the circumstances may be, one moment of contact with Jesus and the fuss is gone, the panic is gone, all the shallow emptiness is gone, and His peace is put in, absolute tranquility, because of what He says: “All power is given unto Me.”

Oh, the fullness of peace and joy and gladness when we are persuaded that nothing “shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Reflection Questions: How has God tested and rectified my spiritual sight? What do I see more clearly now? How does clarity eliminate fuss and fear?
