In this episode of "A Whole Latte Life to Live," host Janis Rodgers delves into the third part of the Happy Holy Days Challenge, focusing on the theme of "Being in His Peace." She begins by emphasizing that living in peace is a choice we make, an intentional act that we can engage in daily, no matter the external circumstances. Drawing from biblical wisdom, she highlights the importance of grounding oneself in faith, trusting in God's plans, and practicing mindfulness to achieve a state of inner peace.
Janis goes on to discuss the concept that creating peace in our lives requires preparation. It's not something that happens passively; instead, we must be proactive in dedicating time for prayer, reflection, meditation, and Bible study. These practices help us find stillness and tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.
The episode also emphasizes the role of gratitude in finding peace. Janis points to Psalm 9:1-2, which encourages giving thanks to the Lord with a whole heart and recounting His wonderful deeds. Cultivating an attitude of gratitude can transform our perspective and enable us to focus on the blessings in our lives.
Finally, Janis discusses the importance of practicing acceptance and contentment. She reminds listeners that peace often comes when we accept that God is in control, citing Psalm 24:1-2, which states that the earth is the Lord's and everything in it. Embracing life with all its imperfections and finding contentment in the present moment can lead to a profound sense of peace.
The episode encourages listeners to reflect on these principles and incorporate them into their lives as part of the Happy Holy Days Challenge, promoting a more peaceful and meaningful holiday season. Janis invites listeners to make a choice for peace, prepare their hearts, express gratitude, and practice acceptance and contentment for all that God has given them.
The episode ends with a call to action, urging listeners to put these principles into practice and experience the joy, tears, miracles, and laughter that come from seeking God's presence in every moment. Finally, it offers a preview of the next episode's theme, "Being in His Love."
