PEACE!

Freedom . . . to worry less about pleasing everyone and everything and to really LIVE . . . this is what true CHRISTianity is all about. Not the rules of the Pharisees or the rules of this club, that fraternity, or whatever other new cultural following. Being a CHRIST-follower is all about knowing and serving Him, not this world and all the disappointments it offers. Following CHRIST means He is always there, even when it all seems doomed (remember the crucufixion, the tomb?). He comes back to us and assures us it will all be o.k.
Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, “Peace to you.” But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.”(Luke 24:36-39)
Trust God in these troubled times. Do not lean upon this world and all the explanations. Trust the Word Who spoke this world into existence. "PEACE!" Be still....He has this!

Don't worry about what others will think about you, worry about what God will think about you. People don't control us, God does.

God still reigns!
