Peace is looking at problems through God's perspective...eternal perspective.
Peace is a soul at rest in God's loving, capable hand.
Peace is feeling relieved that God is in control and we are not.
Peace is praying about everything and worrying about nothing.
Peace is abiding in Jesus, Who is our Peace (Yahweh Shalom).
Peace is surrendering all to God, obeying His Word, and doing His will.
When I fix my thoughts on the power of God, the promises of God, & the purposes of God and give thanks continually for His presence, provision, & protection, His peace guards my heart and mind. I pray. I trust. I rest. Perfect peace is possible.

You are my neighbor at Spiritual Sundays. Today our Pastor mentioned that we do not know if one of these days we may be called to give our live because of our faith in Jesus. He also said, hold fast in the storm because your example of trust will teach others.
