We all know December is busy and frantic and full of high expectations. But can it also be full of peace? Is peace actually possible at any moment? Really?

It is. But it doesn’t come easy

Because things are coming for your peace.

Good news, though! Jesus has an answer for us. Jesus IS the answer for us. What does this have to do with Luke 14? Let’s find out!

ALSO:
Peace= not striving for status.
Peace= not comparing yourself to others.
Peace= not wasting brain energy on deciding where I fit.
Peace= accepting the lowest place.
Peace= identity not rooted in the opinion of others.
Peace= positioning yourself in a way that assumes the best about others.
Peace= creating space for others to be honored.
Peace= lowering yourself AND your expectations.
