The Blessing of Peace

in Leadership, Thoughts

As Believer’s, we are not immune from problems, pain or bad circumstances in life. We have not been given a “get out of trouble free” card. Sometimes we get hurt by accident. Other times the hurt is intentional. And oddly enough, often the hurt is self-inflicted.

No, we were “never promised a rose garden” as an old country song says. But the promises Believers find in Scripture are incredibly powerful and encouraging! One of my favorites is –

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

The Strength and energy that comes from the truth of that promise is refreshing at least and life changing at best! If you are a follower of Christ Jesus, be reminded of the power and hope that resides within you. When difficult circumstances come, talk to the Lord and praise Him with the assurance, that in the end, all will be well because He is watching and protecting!

About Michael

For more than 30 years I have been an effective leader in the religious, non-profit and corporate arenas. I am the CEO (Chief Excellence Officer) of RMStewart Consulting. I help people become excellent, effective leaders. Churches and organizations use me as a speaker, conference leader and workshop presenter.

I appreciate Michael’s approach as he comes alongside a pastor to assist the work already within the pastor’s heart. Michael’s approach goes to the heart of giving.

Michael exhibited the highest integrity and character at all times, supplied Christ-like leadership in every aspect of our church, and put us back on track.

It is my pleasure to recommend Mr. Michael Stewart and RMStewart Consulting. Mr. Stewart provided a Leadership Team Development event for our team. The Real You personality assessment tool and discussion of the four personality types was a topic of conversation many days following the training. It made our group more aware of the personality of their co-workers and seems to have reduced conflict and increased communication. We will use Mr. Stewart in the future to continue our progress toward the best school system we can be.

Michael's The Real You personality inventory and leadership presentation helped us learn much more about ourselves and how to communicate more effectively as a team. His presentation on “Next-Level Teamwork” was invaluable for a church leadership retreat. I highly recommend RMStewart Consulting for your team or leadership development event.
