Vintage Gwen Chapel-Devotion Quotes


I am currently making my way through Ann Spangler's Praying the Names of Jesus devotion. I've already completed her Praying the Names of God. They are so good! I really like the format and that each book came with a journal.  This past week's study was on the name Prince of Peace or Sar Shalom and I've been marking my favorite sentences ..... 

"Shalom conveys not only a sense of tranquility but also of wholeness and completion."
In other words having peace in Jesus means to be complete.
"Peace with God produces peace with others and peace within ourselves."
How often do we allow our peace to be robbed?
"Indeed, it is the wounds of Christ that bring us peace."
"...evil, despite its allure, is essentially stupid."
How true!!
"When God's work is complete, things are as they should be."
"Jesus not only brings us peace, he is our peace."
Our completion!
"You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you." Isaiah 26:3

Have a peaceful weekend!
