Trouble tears apart our lives. Doubt delivers us to our fears. Worry warps our sense of reality. Before we know it we\u2019re trapped in the chaos of day to day life and panic takes over. Yet Christ came to be our peace. Everything\u2014our hopes, worries, fears, doubts, dreams\u2014are met by him and found in him. He can put our worries to rest and surround us with an everlasting peace that calms the raging storm in our lives.<p>Christmas is a busy time of year and it\u2019s easy to get caught up in all the chaos. This holiday season, let\u2019s make time in our schedules to experience the peace that Christ brings. Let\u2019s set aside quiet time with our family and more importantly ourselves to reflect on God\u2019s promises and let his peace wash over us. Through the good and bad, through times of laughter and tears, Christ came to be our peace.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/db189439-f649-4f36-ac20-452f9e2b6282-9045-000009edf3631263_file-860x484.jpg 860w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From today&#8217;s devotion&#8230; Peace is hard to find.
