PEACE I GIVE YOU
When we first think of fasting, we often think of denying ourselves food. What if it is control? What if, in denying ourselves control, we allow God and His perfect peace to take over during a massive storm?
Last year Katie was diagnosed with very aggressive cancer. The short story is hundreds prayed and fasted, and she is now in remission. Through the chemo, radiation, surgeries, and uncertainty… embracing the hope that is in Jesus gave way to a feeling of peace we could not understand. No matter what happens, we win.
The blessing in all of this was God used her cancer to inspire and comfort others. He used it to solidify our marriage in ways we could never imagine. He didn't waste the pain. Denying ourselves control paved the way for His perfect peace to wash over us. Even though we walked through the valley, we did not fear because He walked with us. Whether you know it or not, He walks with you too.
So today, as you hear our story, reflect on your current struggles.
How can you deny yourself control to make way for His perfect peace?
