Takeaways:

Peace with God

God is not pleased with our good deeds we do to try to earn our own righteousness. God is pleased with the life, death, and resurrection of his son Jesus.
Faith, more specifically, faith in Jesus is what pleases God. Not our good works.
Any other peace in our lives has to flow from Jesus and a relationship with God through Jesus. That is where peace starts.

Peace in Me

Jesus’ desire is for us to be at peace, an internal rest, not full of anxiety and unhealthy fear.
Healthy fear tells us that we need God and others.
What we do with initial fear can make a huge difference in how we react. Some may isolate themselves from a relationship with Jesus and others that may cause anxiety and a feeling that we have to be in control.
The peace Jesus offers to us is a resting that we are not in control and that our true need is faith and wisdom

Peace with Others

You may be lacking peace in some relationships… and we might not be able to control the outcomes. Relationships require two people.
Peace with others and peace on earth may require some waiting.
Love your enemies, bless those who curse you. Live at peace in your relationships.
For you, your part in having peace with others is up to you. You get to make a choice in your heart about how you talk to others, how you treat them.

Peace on Earth

The world was at peace until sin entered the picture through Adam and Eve. We will still feel the effects of sin and the violent world until Jesus returns.
We wait in a broken world that longs for peace. A world that longs for a better way.
If we know Jesus, we know peace and we get to share a taste of the Kingdom of God to others.

Discussion Questions:

What are some things we get anxious about in this life that rob us of peace?
Why do you think so many people believe right standing (peace) with God comes from doing good deeds?
What are some ways we can live at peace with other people who are maybe not showing us peace?
How can your life represent the kingdom of God to others?
