(Philippians 4:6-7 NKJV) Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; {7} and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
God’s peace can never be explained away. It’s something that can’t be understood by the human mind.
Having the peace of God doesn’t come naturally. As human beings, we always like to know everything… to have it all figured out. Moving with God will sometimes (many times) mean that we don’t know what tomorrow will bring.
This tends to mess with our heads and cause us to question God if we look at things through human eyes.
But once we begin to get God’s heart and start to see things through His eyes, everything starts to look a whole lot different. As we begin to trust Him more, we also have more peace.
This is the peace that passes understanding. This is the peace that we can have when it seems like the world is crashing down around us. And this is the peace we can have when everyone is looking at us and wondering how we can be so calm when everything looks like it’s falling apart.
Know God. Know His Peace.
