Dear Young Christian:
Two days ago my wife and I were in London England, today we are in Paris France. How fast and far we go in this modern age of travel and technology makes me think of a verse from the Bible that describes the “last days.” “To the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased” (Daniel 12:4). Everybody seems on the go, and the restlessness of society seems to increase the closer we get to the coming of the Lord.
Amidst all this restlessness and discontentment, how good to have “the peace of God, which passeth all understanding” (Philippians 4:7). You may have much turmoil around you this week, and some of you may feel like you are running “to and fro,” but “let the peace of God rule in your hearts” (Colossians 3:15). This is an inward peace and calm that only comes from walking in the confidence of obedience to the Word of God and in fellowship with God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Have a good week, and keep close to the Lord!
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland
