 The Bibles says that the kingdom of God is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. when he has found a pearl of much greater value, he goes and sell all that he has and buys it.

Paul having discovered the excellency of the Knowledge of Christ Jesus, which is of much great value said that, I count all things loss that i may gain Christ. (Phil 3:7-8)

You are pursuing after peace, but there is a peace of much greater value in Jesus which is lasting peace. That joy you are looking for desperately, there is a joy of much greater value which is in Jesus, the joy that never ends. As for the comfort you are chasing after, there is a comfort of much greater value which is in Jesus. that which the comforter the Holy Spirit gives. And for the long life you desire, there is a life of much greater value which is ETERNAL life in Jesus Christ.

That pearl you are looking for, there is a peal of much greater value in Jesus. Just empty your heart and receive this Precious pearl- Jesus Christ
