What are you trying to make happen that only God can make happen?

I'm Joyce Meyer and I believe that God can heal you everywhere

you hurt. Thank you for joining me today on enjoying everyday life.

I really am glad that you've decided to spend this time with me.

Studying God's word, I believe it always helps us every single time we hear it.

And I think you're going to have a better day because you're starting it with God's word.

Today I want to talk about some ways that you can increase your peace.

Now, I spent the larger part of the first,

maybe 45 to 50 years of my life finding something to be upset about most of the time and I finally got hungry enough for peace that I was willing to do whatever I needed to do to have it.

My husband, Dave, was very peaceful and I finally realized if he could have that kind of piece then I could have that kind of

piece. I grew up in an atmosphere of turmoil which maybe many of you did too.

Very dysfunctional home, a lot of arguing, a lot of arguing a lot of strife all the time and I had

such a lack of peace in my life that I actually thought that that kind of

dysfunctional atmosphere was normal.

And so I just put up with it for a long time before I realized

that it was something that Jesus had actually bequeathed to us before he died and left the earth

and I needed to access that in my life.

And I just wonder how many of you watching today

are upset about something.

You're worried about something.

Something is stealing your peace.
