“And the peace of God which transcends all understanding and will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Phil 4:7)
I am thankful for God’s peace, especially in circumstances when it doesn’t make any sense. I experienced God’s peace when my husband passed away and through the three and a half years of single parenting. It was extremely hard but there were moments of peace “that passes understanding” in the midst of it. Supernatural peace. I am so thankful that God gives us peace. I experienced it yet again today. And when I experience God’s peace I have the sense that he loves me, that he’s going to take care of me and that everything will be all right.
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; I do not give it to you as the world does. Do not let your hearts be distressed or lacking in courage.” (John 14:27)
