Oh, how long has mankind been in search of peace?
Since the fall of Adam; mankind has been searching for a peace that seems to be out of reach.
Kingdoms and Nations have fought great wars for peace. Instead of winning the war the battle is what was won. Because mankind can’t fight to obtain the peace in which mankind is in search of.
In the 1960’s a revolt broke out within the young people who were old enough to fight in the Vietnam War. Noticing that this war was a losing battle they began a chant that went like this. “Make love not war” they began to “turn off to turn on” Peace buttons and emblems were worn to request peace in the world. Yet, the peace that mankind was in search of; never showed up.
Moms with two or more children (especially) under the age of 5 scream for peace. Dads come home from a stressful day at the office and he’s looking for peace at home (as long as the kids and the wife do not bother him). We are in search of peace in all the wrong places and in all the wrong forms. This is why mankind can’t get satisfied because the peace that mankind is craving is being craved from the soul of man. Man is in search of someone and don’t even know it. All man knows is that he is empty and he has a need to be satisfied. Man tries every type of sin he thinks he can handle and yet he is still unsatisfied.
MANKIND/MAN INCLUDES FEMALES AS WELL. I’M USING THE TERM MAN/MANKIND BECAUSE IT’S THE TOTALITY OF HUMAN CREATION.
Each and every one of us experience restlessness within our souls.
YOU will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on YOU, because he trusts in YOU. Isaiah 26:3
Peace I leave with you, MY peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
John 14:27
One of the worse things that you can experience is when your head is already in a bad place and all you hear is negative conversation. You may go to someone to speak out what is bothering you and you get drama.
I will hear what GOD The LORD will speak, for HE will speak peace to HIS people and to HIS; saints but let them not turn back to foolishness.

There is peace with GOD through JESUS The CHRIST, who is LORD over all. Acts 10:36
There have been wars since the beginning and wars will continue until the return of JESUS The CHRIST. However, we can have peace regardless of what the journalist inform us on the news. Regardless of what the journalist may write in the paper.
JESUS is called The Wonderful COUNSELOR; Mighty GOD; Everlasting FATHER; PRINCE of PEACE. HIS government and its peace will never end. HE will rule with fairness and justice from the throne of HIS ancestor David for all eternity. Isaiah 9:6-7
Peace is found in one person and one person alone; JESUS.
