Summer Thoughts

San Jose Castle Lanzarote by Paul Collings

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. – Colossians 3:15 


Having the peace of God ruling in our hearts and in our love is something that we have to let happen. If we are focused on being negative and letting all the negativity in our lives overtake what God wants to put in our hearts, we are never going to be at peace. In all things, be thankful for what He has given you, and let peace rule in your heart. Let it overflow in your soul and proclaim it by letting it affect the way you treat and love other people. 


God of the impossible,

We pray for justice, peace and reconciliation;

When the challenges seem too many,

Remind us of your resurrection power;

When the task seems overwhelming,

Remind us of the miracle of love;

And when apathy threatens us,

Remind us of your vision of a world made whole.

Help us to hope that the impossible can happen

And live as if it might do so today. Amen.
