Shoes of Peace - Day 1 of 5

Devotional
In our fast-paced world, peace can seem elusive. We often chase after momentary happiness, thinking it will bring us peace. However, true peace, the kind that sustains us through life's storms, begins with peace with God. This peace is not earned but received through faith in Jesus Christ. When we put on the "shoes of peace" as part of the armor of God, we are reminded that our foundation is secure in His love and salvation. No matter the chaos around us, we can walk confidently, knowing that God's peace is with us.

Bible Verse
"For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the good news so that you’ll be fully prepared." – Ephesians 6:15

Reflection Question
How can you remind yourself daily that true peace begins with your relationship with God?

Sermon Quote
"When I receive peace with God, I am then filled with the peace of God…a harmony and wholeness in my mind and my heart."

Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for the peace that comes from knowing You. Help me to walk in this peace every day, regardless of my circumstances. May Your love be my foundation and strength. Amen.
