“Great peace have they who love your law, and nothing can make them stumble.”
Psalms 119:165 (NIV)

How many of us has tried to put together an article we bought in a store but didn’t have success for the simple fact that we didn’t follow the instructions included in the package by the manufacturer? We get angry, get bitter, hopeless and, many times, we give up and leave the article, that with many sacrifices we obtained it, aside. We preferred deny all the benefits we can get from it, the help or the happiness just because we refuse to follow the instructions.

This happens many times in different aspects of our lives. We want to rejoice, to have peace, health and joy but we doesn’t make the time to read the manual that teaches us how to achieve it, therefore the ignorance keeps us far from getting it.

Which is this manual? The Bible. The Living Word of God.

If we are looking for our life is plenty of peace and not to stumble, this powerful manual is full of instructions to achieve it. Among many of these effective instructions we find:

1. Stay close to God, our Father who loves us, guides us and knows exactly what is convenience for us.
2. Keep His Word in our hearts, meditate in it day and night so when adversity arrives in our lives we could face it and for us to stand still.
   
3. Obey His Commandments. Taking firm steps not seeing to any side neither what others could say about us. To trust that our Guide will have the instructions for us to reach whatever it is that God promises us.
4. Love one another. Follow the lead of our Lord and practice all that He had teaches us.
   
5. Hard times will come. Yes. But to have God within us makes us enjoy life in peace even in the middle of adversity in the center of the storm, because His Word will turns the tumbling blocks into stepping stones that will help us reach further in our path.

Let’s love the instructions that our Lord gives us. The victory is among them.

Blessings
