Peace, Beyond Understanding

 

Today's verse is Philippians 4:7

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 

    How can we in such a time as this have peace? It is because we know who God is, and we know who we are to him, and we know that our God does not forsake his own. Notice the verses that surround this one. In the preceding verse we are admonished to bring everything to our God in prayer, and in the following verse commands us what things on which we are to think. As we do these things, we will truly find that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience, and experience, hope; why, because we will have learned of our God, and how he takes care of his own. Above this, we will have learned that our God is faithful. Amen.

To God be the Glory
