Grace and peace from God our Father and for Jesus Christ our Redeemer who came to take away the sin of the world and bring us the fullness of His Holy Spirit!

Dearly beloved in Christ,
There are moments in our lives when God calls to us and says, “Run to Me!” Something troubling is on our heels. The faster and farther we go, the more closely it pursues us. We can’t shake it. We’re too afraid to turn and confront the trouble on our own. But the reality is that we aren’t on our own. God is there, ready to help and comfort us. All we have to do is turn away from whatever scares us, and move in His direction. His Word says, “The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe” (Prov. 18:10).
God is our refuge in times of trouble!

When has God given you peace? Share your story with your friends.
Dear Jesus, You are the Prince of Peace. I need the kind of peace that only You can give. Help me to turn to You when I am troubled.
