Receive It in Your Heart

Somedays feel a little more chaotic than others.

On those days, it is easy to turn to the things of the world to calm our anxious hearts.

Music often soothes the soul in ways nothing else can.

And when His message is woven into the lyrics, a certain sense of peace can wash over us.

The other day this hymn written by Elinor J. Di Falco popped into my head.

It was one I had committed to memory from my childhood.

Nostalgia and comfort flowed through me quickly.

“The peace of the Lord is given to you, receive it in your heart.

The joy of the Lord is with you too, receive it in your heart.

Make it grow in you and me; make it glow for all to see.

Show his love to all the world, it is in your heart.”

The peace of the Lord is given to us all.

Will you receive it in your heart?

“I leave the gift of peace with you—My peace. Not the kind of fragile peace given by the world, but My perfect peace. Don’t yield to fear or be troubled in your hearts—instead, be courageous!”
‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭27‬ ‭TPT‬‬
