Over the last few weeks, we’ve talked about how a life lived by the Spirit is one that is governed by love and where joy is overflowing because of the freedom we have in Christ. Just as we have joy because of that freedom, a Spirit-filled existence is also one where we are at peace spiritually. This peace is a spiritual peace. It’s the calm and assurance that comes with grace. It’s the rest and stillness that comes with Christ. It’s the freedom from laws, rules, and checklists that allows you to breathe again–or maybe for the first time.
