SBS Week 4: Peace

This week's Fruit of the Spirit lesson at Scripture Scrappers was on Peace. I chose John 14:27 as my verse: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." Jesus said this to his disciples as a way to comfort them. He explains that although he was soon returning to the Father, the Holy Spirit was coming in his place to be with them. Any verse on peace, regardless of the context, comforts me. lol There are so many times that I allow myself to get bogged down in the noise around me instead of waiting and listening for the soft, calming voice of the Lord.


What gives a bigger feeling of Peace than a sleeping baby? lol :P

This layout was also made for the very first challenge at Paper Blooms! I was so excited to see this challenge because I am loving me some purple and green lately! lol

Have a great Sunday everyone!
