Reflecting on Peace With God Towards Us

Saturday is a day to reflect on all that God has been speaking to you this week, and how it will affect your life going forward.

From those of us on the Tree Church Daily team, we hope that you have had an amazing week in your time with God. We pray that you were challenged and encouraged by God’s word and His presence in your daily life.

Today, we want you to do something simple yet important. We want you to take time to write in a notebook, journal, or record a voice memo in your phone answering the prompts below. This does not need to be profound, poetic, or polished. It is a record for you to visit later, to see and remember all that God is doing in your life. Journaling is a way to remind you of what God is speaking to you. Speaking something out loud or writing it down makes what we are thinking tangible, and makes us accountable to it. If God has challenged you or called you to do something specific this past week, making it tangible makes it real. So don’t skip today…today is about faith building, and that is what we pray happens for you.

Before you get started though, let’s pray together:

God, thank You for loving me enough to send Your son to die for my sins. Because of Your sacrifice, I am able to live in Your peace and be in relationship with You. As I reflect on the truths of this week, I pray that You will allow me to feel the peace of Your presence. I love you, Lord. Amen.

Here are today’s prompts for you to process through in your written or voice journal:

First, focus on God’s promises to you. Recognizing that we are sinners, but also knowing that because of the sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross, take a moment to sit in thankfulness. Thank God for that sacrifice and reflect on how it impacts your everyday life.

Second, focus on your current reality. Is there anything that is causing you unrest in your mind and heart? Whether it is unresolved sin, shame, anxiety, fear, or conflict, name those things and commit them to God. We are not meant to carry things alone, so give them all to God!

Lastly, focus on a step God has challenged you to take. After handing those things over to God, take the next step of receiving His peace. God is for you and wants you to receive peace in His presence. Take some time to rest in the promise of peace that He has graciously given!
