“For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility” – Ephesians 2:14

Amy Carmichael was a Northern Irish missionary to Japan and southern India. She endured hardship such as Dengue fever and she was on the field for more than 55 years.

She is remembered for building a Christian orphanage in Dohnavur, India which housed more than 500 young girls who were rescued from the streets.

Her lengthy ministry was sustained through her strong reliance upon scripture and prayer.
She wrote, “Blessed are the single-hearted, for they shall enjoy much peace…If you refuse to be hurried and pressed, if you stay your soul on God, nothing can keep you from that clearness of spirit which is life and peace. In that stillness you know what His will is.”

Only Jesus can bring peace. Give thanks to the Lord that He is our peace.

“Christ alone can bring lasting peace – peace with God – peace among men and nations – and peace within our hearts.” – Billy Graham

“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.” – John 14:27
