What does peace mean to you? To me, it is contentment, fulfillment, and being seen, known, and loved by my Father in Heaven. When I am close to Jesus, I am filled with these feelings and all of life gets easier. There is less pressure on anything to work out the way I want or expect, because I am already filled and fulfilled by Jesus.

The Bible talks ALL about peace because people of all ages have dealt with fear and anxiety. But God tells us through John that "There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear" 1 John 4:18a. God wants to take our anxieties and replace them with His love!

But if all that is true, how can it be that even when I am praying regularly and trying to stay in communion with God, I can still sometimes be filled with stress and anxiety? God always wants to give us the fruits of the Holy Spirit (including peace!), but sometimes we are:

Not open to it
Actively doing things that are in opposition to peace
Acting in ways that are not good for us and God allows a lack of peace to push us away

In this series we will go through many aspects of motherhood and see how we can make ourselves more open to the peace God wants to bring us.
