We spend so much time looking for inner peace. Inner peace is essential for our feeling of self-worth and value. But our searching for inner peace is futile as long as we search for it in external places. We seek stability in relationships but people fail us. We seek passion in porn but that is passion that leaves us empty and seeking more. We seek security in finances and careers but they fail. We seek strength in healthy living but everyone dies eventually. Only Jesus gives us the inner peace and sense of value we crave.
