I was reading through a bunch of testimonies last night and this caught my attention:

"I had peace with God - but not the peace of God."

It's not enough friends, to have the "He's up there, I'm down here and we're good." thing goin' on - I've been there, there's nothing to hold onto when life gets tough. Go right for the peace of God - it goes past anything we can understand or figure out and that's the point. It's supernatural.
Whatever you've got that's driving you crazy - or to drink, or to worry or to yell at your wife and kids - give it up to God. Let Him handle things, and this peace of God will guard your heart AND your mind in Christ Jesus. Let me tell you friends, there's no safer place to leave your troubles than in Jesus, and with Him guarding your heart and mind, you can finally stop the frenzy and just be still for once, and be OK with that.
Doesn't that sound inviting?

Have you any time for Jesus,
As in grace he calls again?
O today is time accepted,
Tomorrow you may call in vain.

Room for Jesus, King of Glory!
Hasten now, his word obey!
Swing your heart's door widely open,
Bid him enter while you may.
