All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.—Luke 21:4 (NIV)
God is not the author of confusion but of peace.—1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV)
WHEN LIFE SEEMS to be spinning out of control, focus on this verse. Ask the Author of Peace to help you regain your sense of calm. Take a deep breath and rest in the understanding that God provides peace above and through the confusion.

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.—Hebrews 4:12 (NIV)
