"Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28 NLT)When we think about what Jesus's words promise and who is actually saying them, they become some of the most welcoming words ever spoken. In a world that is unraveling with anxiety and stress, no one less than Jesus offers us His peace.Yet it's hard to feel peaceful while waiting for a biopsy result, grieving a lost relationship, or walking through unemployment. How do we receive and enjoy the peace God offers during hard times?The answer is prayer that is an everyday, heart-to-heart relationship with the Creator. With scriptural insights and inviting storytelling, James Banks shows how daily friendship with God brings us peace as we experience anxieties, suffer past hurts, and face chronic difficulties.The peace Jesus offers us is more than just words. It's healing for our hurts and calm for our troubled hearts. It's love and acceptance when others misunderstand us and push us away. It's the freedom of a new identity in Him, defined not by how good we are but by how good He is.Through prayer God transforms the way His followers see themselves and others.
