Day 1: Peace Through Obedience

Why Can't I Find Peace? · Living With Wisdom · June 27, 2026

Scripture
When the Lord takes pleasure in anyone’s way, he causes their enemies to make peace with them. — Proverbs 16:7 (NIV)
Proverbs 16:7

This proverb is remarkable. It says God can change the hearts of people who oppose you. But the key is your way pleasing the Lord first. We often want peace in our relationships before we are willing to deal with our own hearts. But God says start with your obedience, and He will handle the rest. You cannot control how other people act toward you, but you can walk in a way that pleases God. And when you do, He goes to work on your behalf.

Prayer

Lord, search my heart. Show me if there is anything in my way that does not please You. I trust You to handle the people and circumstances I cannot control.
