September 30 – Strength and Peace

“The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.” Psalm 29:11 (NIV)

We sometimes look to God for a blessing in our lives without really thinking what a blessing will do for us. The psalmist here speaks of two ways that he found that God blesses his people. Although he describes only one of them as a blessing. We do need however, to consider the strength we get from God as a part of His blessing. Our verse speaks of the peace which God gives us as a blessing and we easily concur with that. Yes, when we are distracted by something that happens or by something upsets us we can find peace by trusting in the Lord and the peace comes from God in response to our trusting. It is from God, our Lord that we get strength to continue in faith and it is from Him that we receive the blessing of peace. May God's peace bless you today, all day.
