Scripture: Haggai 2:9b
“And in this place I will give peace, says the Lord of hosts.”
Reflection:
The promise does not end with power or flawlessness, but with peace — shalom, the wholeness that arises when love and justice come together. God’s peace isn’t the calm after something is finished, but the confidence in the midst of the work: “I am with you.”
In every chaotic season of rebuilding, whether it’s your faith, your health, or your church — God provides peace that steadies the hands and softens the heart. It’s the quiet strength that allows us to keep building even when the outcome is unseen.
Application:
Take five minutes to sit quietly today. As you breathe, picture God’s peace filling you and flowing outward to others.
Writing Prompt:
What does God’s peace feel like to you during this season of rebuilding?
Prayer:
Giver of peace, establish your calm within me. Let your shalom take root in my heart and flow through my hands. Amen.
