Ephesians 1:2

Paul prays for grace and peace for the Ephesians. We don't come across grace and peace  like something you pick up at the store. Grace and peace are blessings given to us from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We are given grace because Christ represented us and paid our punishment, a gift we didn't deserve. We find peace in knowing that, no matter what is going on in our lives, we have the assurance of salvation in Christ. We try to find peace in the world, but it won’t give us the same peace only God can give.  Where do you find your peace?  Do you find it in Christ or in worldly things?  How can looking to Christ give you peace in your life?
