Jude 1:1-2

To those who are the called dearly loved by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ. May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you (filling your heart with the spiritual well-being and serenity experienced by those who walk closely with God).

Only one relationship exists that will bring mercy, peace, and love into our lives. That relationship with God will lift us in any circumstance. The closer we focus our walk with God, the greater joy and peace we will have in our lives. The closer we walk with God, the easier it will be to fulfill God’s plan for our lives on this earth.
