The Inner Life - Going deeper
So,
No matter how much I go around telling others about my Christian faith, I won't be able to spread peace on earth! There is that thinking sometimes. Actually, far worse is that some celebrities will go around saying that if we just all visualize world peace it will come. They think that, and say that, because the misunderstand the true nature of the inner life.
I on my own do not have the power to change the direction of world events or even the course of over all history in my own life. It is God who is the master of all that exists.
In the Bible, inProverbs 16:9 it says "A man's heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps"
It is God who has overall control over the events of history. God sees all from the beginning to end. The path to world peace, begins at the path to inner peace. That inner peace must be peace with God. Only God's wisdom, can lead us in the way that He knows is right.
Proverbs 3:5-8 says "Trust in God with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Don't be wise in your own eyes. Fear Yahweh, and depart from evil. It will be health to your body, and nourishment to your bones."
Trust in God, by first studying what he says in the Bible.
