A "peace" of the puzzle

It all began with a different point of view. Typically, cancer cells are thought of as aggressive, destructive, powerful, smart. The picture of them running rampant in my body is not pleasant, to say the least! But in Cancer Conqueror ( a new favorite book), the author challenges us to view them in a different light. The truth is that cancer cells are weak and confused. In that state, they do wreak havoc and destroy. Yes, they can cause a body to die. But recently God has given me a new tool for this battle. This is my newest "peace" of the puzzle!

All through this current journey, our goal has been to live each day in PEACE - nothing missing, nothing broken. Our Father is the God of Peace. Jesus is the Prince of Peace! We are promised peace as we trust in Him...
Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything.
With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God.
Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that
no one can completely understand.
And this peace will control the way you think and feel.  (Phil. 4:6,7 CEV)

Peace is my newest weapon. If the peace of God can calm an angry storm then the peace of God can calm a little cancer cell. Can minister to angry, infected cells on my problem toes. Can help my immune system to be strong and function properly. God's peace can help your heart to be restored, bring joy to your soul and give strength where you are weak.

So, I'm speaking peace to those weak, confused cells in my body. God's peace can help them to return to normal; functioning in the way God created them to function! It's not the only answer, the sure and certain cure or the guaranteed solution to all cancer. But, for now, this is my focus. This is my prayer. 

Do you have an area in your body, soul or spirit that is broken, missing something? Speak God's peace to that situation. HIS PEACE is everything. His peace gives hope and freedom and courage. His peace gives us the strength to reach out when we want to pull inside. I don't understand it, can't explain it but I choose to receive it. Over and over, again and again. Will you join me? 

NOW may the GOD OF PEACE Himself continually grant you
peace in EVERY circumstance. (2 Thess. 3:16)
