Day 17

Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 3:16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.

Application: Being in this dieter support group was a new experience to me. The verse, The Lord be with you all” says it all. Not just me, but all. My victories were not mine alone; they were shared with others. My failures were not mine alone; they were shared with others. My prayers were not for me alone; they were for others. That is how to have peace at all times and in every way. Every way is to share His way with members of the body of Christ so that everyone may learn and benefit from one another. We are called to build up the body of Christ, one and another, not to tear down. And yet, when we feel like we can be a lone wolf and walk on our own and not share with others, we are tearing down the body of Christ and only building up ourselves. Want peace today? Go and encourage someone else that they are not fighting this weight battle on their own. Pray for them, give them the Scriptures that enlightened you, and give them your full attention for the day at hand. It might be that when you are serving others you will have less time on hand to be overly concerned with your own battle.

Prayer: Father God, I desire your peace and I seek it today by ministering to others in their needs. Help me to be selfless today. Help me to be Your gentle hands and sweet voice to those who are just starting this journey. Let me lift one who is ready to turn back to the wrong path. Allow me to serve as Christ Jesus did. Amen
